Starred you! I read Brideshead Revisited last year and really enjoyed it.
Are you going to post reviews or put them on the work page?

cmt, I probably won't post too many reviews here (since I don't review most of the books I read). I may for some of the non-fiction since I feel more comfortable reviewing that sort of thing. Speaking of non-fiction...

OK you have to post a review of this one, because I've almost bought it several times now! He's the Dealbook guy, right? What was it like?

Actually I was planning on posting a review for this one. You're correct that Sorkin is the Dealbook guy for the NYT. Overall, a very interesting read. A pretty exhaustive blow by blow of the events leading up to the Lehman bankruptcy through the passage of TARP. Not much analysis, but I don't think that was his point in writing the book. I would definitely recommend it. I'll post more on it later.
