I really love reading these Hatchet Job book reviews from http://www.hatchetjoboftheyear.com

I don't know why I like reading them so much.  I haven't even read any of the books they are tearing apart, but somehow I always get caught up in the reviewer's anger anyway.

(I enjoyed last year's batch too.)

I enjoy watching anyone take the piss out of Martin Amis and Salman Rushdie. And Naomi Wolfe's book just sounds incomparably inept.

I'm generally sympathetic to Naomi Wolfe (what little I've read of her) but I really enjoyed that take down all the same. I don't know why, just because I enjoy a good take down.

The take down of Salman Rushdie was also very good.
