I must have read a lot of good ... 31. Jennings, Ken. Brainiac: Adventures in the Curious, Competitive, Compulsive World of Trivia Buffs. New York: Villard, 2007. 247 pp.
Jenning’s treatise on trivia and his own experiences on Jeopardy! are brilliant without being magnanimous. Everyone involved in the history of trivia ... I finished Brainiac by Ken Jennings (verdict: interesting, but not quite as good as Prisoner in Trebekistan by Bob Harris) and A Certain Slant of Light by Laura Whitcomb (verdict: I can't put my finger on exactly what's wrong with it, but it just seemed kind of trite and didn't ever capture ... ... it off in an hour and a half - I loved it, and am sad that no one ever pointed me to it as a child.
Will probably start Brainiac: Adventures in the Curious, Competitive, Compulsive World of Trivia Buffs by Ken Jennings this evening or tomorrow.
