Book Review of Word Freak : Heartbreak, Triumph, Genius, and Obsession in the World of Competitive Scrabble Players

This is an engrossing book, but it kind of annoyed me. Scrabble as Fatsis described it bears little relation to the game I play (and lose regularly) with my sister Marie. But, as a tour of a strange subculture, it's pretty good.
