"Too Big to Fail"...

...is almost too big to read. And too confusing (the cast of characters seems endless). And way to depressing, and not a little boring in the end. But, for all that, it's a fine piece of reporting on just how hopelessly screwed up things really are on the Washington-Wall Street axis, and Sorkin does a fine job of tying it all up in the end. I'm glad I read it; I'm not sure I'd take it to the beach.

I have a couple of other books about the late economic excitement on my reading list but first, I need a few hundred pages of fun.
