OK, don't get me wrong. Picayune's review of my book Death from the Skies! is great. I loved it, and I'm really glad he liked the book. But I have to give the edge to Joanne from Joanne Loves Science. She put together a video review, which is pretty cool. She does reviews of books and such for her students, and clearly is passionate about science. My favorite part of her review (about five minutes in) is when she talks about why I don't have any math in the book. She's precisely right about that. It would've cut book sales in half. But I'm glad she liked it. Keep those review coming, folks!
