Started What If? by Randall Munroe.

It's by the guy who runs / draws xkcd.com web comics, and gives serious scientific answers to absurd hypothetical questions. For example: Is it possible to build a jetpack using downward firing machine guns?

Questions are weird like that, but the science is real, so an interesting read. Specially if you are a fan of xkcd.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Could be number of people reading Scott Moon vs John Scalzi, also it's possible that Scalzi is more popular so many people read it just because of popularity and end up not liking it, while only the people who like Moon's book read them.

Just guessing randomly...
