This is a conditional prediction market intended to help me determine what books to review.
It resolves as positive if I post a review of one of Rene Girard's books on mimetic desire on ACX and get at least 125 Substack likes within one week of posting. It resolves as negative if I post the review and get fewer than 125 likes. If I don't review any such book within a year, it resolves N/A.
I haven't decided exactly which book of his I would start with yet, but I'm leaning towards "I See Satan Fall Like Lightning". If someone making strong positive bids on this market wants to convince me another one is better, I'll probably be easy to convince.
