For friends of mine that were dismayed to discover that my planned leisurely reading for the honeymoon was the 9/11 Commission report, you'll be heartened to know that I didn't take it with me. Someone alerted my wife who immediately ruled it out because she was afraid I'd get irate during the honeymoon.
All I have to say for myself is that what you and I consider "leisurely" reading is different, especially since I don't get the time to read what I want very often. Faced with a tough school year, this was my only chance to really read it before the Christmas holidays. Now you'll just have to wait for my reaction in pieces.
Sure, I might have gotten upset on the honeymoon but I'm not sure that it was altogether any different from me yelling at the CNN International throughout the vacation...
next time - you can get it as an audiobook on iTunes... listen to it anytime, and no one will be the wiser...
