I am a big fan Of A. J. Jacobs and his books! Both my copy of “Know-It-All” and “Biblically” are lent out at this time to friends and they are loving them. I just ordered the new one and I can’t wait! I am a mouth breather too. The biggest problem I find is the drooling while sleeping.

I had not heard of AJ Jacobs or his books before now. I am going to have to check it out.

Mouth breathers do get a bad rap! I don’t know if I have small nasal passages or what, but I can’t get enough air through my nose unless I’m sitting still. So why does that make one a moron?

Mouth breathers of the world unite!

This post made my night! I am so excited about this new book, and I am very tempted to buy the book right now. However, I think I’m going to wait until after tomorrow’s contest (fingers-crossed).

Not sure when I’ll find time to read it as a new grad student, but I’ll just have to fit it in somewhere!

I’m reading The Guinea Pig Diaries right now, and it’s just as wonderful as his other two books!

In one of AJ’s books (can’t remember which – I read them back to back, and in the opposite order in which they were published) he talks about reading his book reviews on Amazon (and that his dad marks bad reviews as “unhelpful”). I assume that he’ll be reading these comments as well, so AJ, you rock. Your first two books were incredibly funny, informative, and interesting, and after seeing your outsourced book trailer, I don’t think I’ll be let down with the third. Best of luck with its release.

Great timing on this post — I’m currently reading “Know-It-All” per my sister’s recommendation, and she’s encouraging me to read “Biblically” next. I’ve also been enjoying Jacobs’ back-page columns in the print issues since they began. Can I out myself as a burgeoning fangirl?

I loved “The Year of Living Biblically,” and I’m a Bible guy. I’m just a huge fan of the way A.J. writes. I’ll definitely look to get in the running for one of those freebies.
