"I like her section on collegial cooperation and the more informal lives of the sitting justices of the SCOTUS. She's really "got soul" in her vocation as an Article III associate justice. She also deep dives on plurality opinions and its history in judicial making." — Feb 13, 2026 06:27PM

"It’s interesting, I’d say. Mostly good so far with solid stuff. There is one line where the author claims (without any citation) that Saturnalia was just reappropriated to Christmas, a claim as old as a certain Lutheran historian and many later unconventional Protestants would adopt. Of course, I say it’s false but there’s all too many other books that discuss that trope. Other than that, I like the rest!" — Jul 18, 2025 07:20PM
