I'm the type of person who will point out misspellings or misusages of grammar. My friends are always irritated with me because of my oddity. This book...Dear God! Eats, Shoots & Leaves is quite possibly the worst book I've ever read. After I read House On Mango Street, I thought that surely there wasn't a book written worse than that. I stand corrected. Lynn Truss (the author) is obsessive and needs a cat or something. She's very repetetive in writing the book. She constantly repeats what she has previously said because THERE ISN'T THAT MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT A COMMA!!!! God help me. Unless you are required to read this book, as I was for AP English, I highly recommend you do not read this book. It is quite possible you will literally be bored to tears. Save your money. Save your time. Read Shakespeare.
