Moneyball

It took me nearly six weeks (which is deplorable, because it's just not that long) to finish Moneyball. It's a book about the business of baseball, specifically the business of baseball done Billy Beane's way. (Beane is the GM of the Oakland A's). It's pretty interesting if you enjoy baseball as I do (in fact, I blame the real baseball playoffs for my taking so long to finish this book). Some of the more business-y sections I found a bit dry, but I loved the human interest parts and the actual baseball anecdotes.
