I have this on my Kindle and really must get to it! Completely agree on the wishing I could read everything Ana talks about thing. She just reads too many good books to keep up though really 😉

Sorry, I was so captivated by your review that I forgot about the horifc-ness of the first paragraph. Here is my wise advice: DON’T STOP BLOGGING!!!!

And it’s always happening even in the reading world. There’s “the boy books” and “the girl books”. I’m no scientist, but I think I’ve mastered sarcasm — http://alittlespotofrandom.blogspot.ie/2012/05/boys-and-girls.html

Love, Ruby

And another one who loves it. Ana really is the best at book suggestions, right? Gah, I need to take your advice and stop postponing on all the books she tells me I should read. Including this one.

And I really really really loved this post. I don’t want you to stop blogging, but I understand the guilt thing. Just know that we will all probably love your posts however many we get in a year.

I wish I had some genius ideas for streamlining blogging time – I could certainly use some! The most difficult time of the year to find blogging time is the summer because my boys are home and need a lot of attention (so they don’t hurt each other, etc).

As for the book, I love books about studies, especially if they have to do with how the brain works. Thanks for the recommendation!

In reply to Christy. Yeah! I don't like feeling out of the loop! That is a part of it too. I feel like I miss a lot of the things that happen that I would like to know about. Stupid commutes!

In reply to Jenny. I think I own The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat. So do not buy it yet! Also the newish one about face blindness sounds v. v. interesting.

Eek, now the pressure is on!

I enjoyed this too. I loved how obsessed Fine became, in a good sleuthing way. I wish more competently obsessive people would write books about neuroscience or psychology, instead of the usual kind who are obsessed with their thesis.
