I can't imagine caring what Mensa thinks anybody should read, let alone thinking that anybody should care what I think about what Mensa thinks anybody should read.

And one of our favorite Columbo episodes (all free on Tubi) that features a murder in a very Mensa-style club, titled "The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case".
