The Year of Living Biblically. By: A.J. Jacobs

I wanted to read this because I had seen the tv show that was based on this book.  But because I'd seen the tv show first, I was expecting the book to be uproariously funny-it wasn't.  There are moments of wry observational humor, which did make me chuckle, but otherwise this is a thoughtful, and detailed examination of the author's year of living by the biblical laws.  It's quite educational, and Mr. Jacobs rights with great ease.  An interesting, fun read.
