Reviews

94 people wrote reviews. This year had Vanessa Kosoy holding down the fort. Among many other positive qualities, one thing I especially appreciate about Vanessa's reviews is that Vanessa has an opinionated, coherent worldview, and the subjects of her reviews aren't strongly correlated with the kinds posts other reviewers tend to focus on.

A shout out to Zack Davis for being the most disagreed-with reviewer - I didn't agree with all of his reviews, but I disagreed with them less than the LessWrong voters did, and at least one of them influenced my voting[1], which not many reviews accomplished.

Some other reviews I found particularly interesting[2] included John Wentworth's review of On Green, Rudolf's review of his own post reviewing Planecrash, and Thomas's review of John's postmortem.
