The House Of Odd

This week’s top 10 list of nonfiction books has the house a bit disturbed and perplexed.  Seems the metaphysical claptrap known as the Secret is still number one beating 6th place Christopher Hitchens’ atheist manifesto god is not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything.

Let me save those curious about the Secret a little time and money.   The ’secret’ is… wait for it…  if you think positive thoughts you can will your desires to come true.  That’s it,  you’re welcome.
