• Tim Chester has read Deliberate Simplicity by Dave Browning (I reviewed that here) and he's also watched The Christ Files DVD
  
• Inhabitat has a review of $20 per gallon by Christopher Steiner about peak oil
• Tim Challies has read Understanding English Bible Translation by Leland Ryken
• Gary McMurray has reviewed The Year of Living Biblically by AJ Jacobs and Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol 
• Jeremy has reviewed The End of Money by Thomas Greco
