<p>I got a copy of Omnivore's dilemma in my NSO packet. Is this required reading? I mean, I guess I'll read it eventually, but right now I'm going through a couple of other books.</p>
<p>it's not "required" but be prepared to make up an answer if you're called upon in the nso book discussion groups...</p>
<p>aghh.. guess I'll read it on the plane ride then...bye bye benedetti short stories for the trip.</p>
<p>It is actually a pretty good book unlike some of the selections in the past, so I would recommend reading it. If you find yourself not really interested in it though, don't waste your time.</p>
