BREAKING: Blogger Has Awful Taste in Books

As one of likely two book club members who read Gawker's sports blog, Deadspin, the responsibility of reporting book club-related info appearing on that site probably falls to me.

So! It turns out Deadspin editor A.J. Daulerio differs greatly with book club consensus regarding one of our selections. When asked by an emailer who his favorite author and book are, he writes:

Favorite author right now is Charles Bock. Go grab "Beautiful Children" and read it 50 times. It's excellent.

50...times...? He is an Eagles fan, so maybe self-punishment is part of his DNA.

Eh? Eagles fan joke? Anyone?
