In the interest of keeping things interesting, one extra requirement attaches to the books you can pick for your book review: only one person per book. The way we will manage the "first come first served" norm (easy norm to agree on but there are some transaction and information costs -- more about those later in the course) is to have you comment on this blog entry.
When you have settled on an book, add a comment to this entry by clicking on the comment button below. Of course, you should read through the other comments to see what's already been taken. If I'm feeling really energetic I'll keep tabs and figure out a way to cross them off on the online lists as they are signed up for. But don't hold your breath on this last bit.
Be sure to leave both your name and the title of the book.
