I just realized I missed posting my March and April books so here we gooo....
March I read something....hmmmm, oh yeah...
THIS ONE:
SUPER FREAKONOMICS by Levitt & Dubner.

I loved it. But I loved the first Freakonomics book so I knew I would. It's just a lot of really interesting true facts and how they effect economics today or in the past.
A breakdown of what's covered:
Introduction: Putting the Freak in Economics
Chapter 1: How is a street prostitute like a department-store Santa?
Chapter 2: Why should suicide bombers buy life insurance?
Chapter 3: Unbelievable stories about apathy and altruism
Chapter 4: The fix is in---and it's cheap and simple
Chapter 5: What do Al Gore and Mount Pinatubo have in common?
OK, onto April. That one was a bit more disturbing.
BUYOLOGY by Lindstrom

I will cover one of those things in my next post...... but I digress.
Both books came from my local library and I would recommend both for different reasons.
NEXT BOOK.... something a little more uplifting.
