I am so glad I read this book considering it allowed me to answer a Trivial Pursuit question about Scrabble! lol! But, anyway, in this book, Stefan Fatsis decides to investigate the world of competitive Scrabble and becomes as obsessed as the subjects he meets. He tells the history of the game, introduces us to some of the more colorful players, and lets us follow him as he becomes more and more obsessed. It can be a touch dry at points, but I just love the quirkiness of the people and watching Stefan's obsession grow. A fascinating read even the second time around.
