I am in the minority (though I am joined by Jonathan Yardley of the Washington Post, among others) in being one of those who think CITR is a vastly overrated book...

Count me in with the minority, Mike. I always say that when anyone over the age of 16 tells me that CITR (or Atlas Shrugged) is their favorite book, I figure they're either pathologically self-absorbed or haven't read very much.

I read it about 50 years ago and liked it. I wonder if I'd feel the same today.
