Woe Is I: The Grammarphobe's Guide to Better English in Plain English(Third Edition) | Patricia T. O'Conner

My local bookstore had a warehouse sale so I picked up 16 books for $30 ($10 once I used my trade in credit) ðŸ¤— Bryson is skeptical about our sagging bookshelves' ability to hold them though ðŸ˜„ Also, I am really hoping tagged book is going to help my grammar inprove.

Ruthiella Nice haul ! ðŸ˜€ 4y

Flew through this. Note that I am out of blue tabs- because those were what I was using to remind myself of things I had forgotten! It's a quick read, and I skimmed many parts. 3.5â

Graciouswarriorprincess One of my favorite grammar books! 5y

Other grammar/writing books are good, but this one also manages to be witty. ðŸ‘ðŸ»
