I absolutely hate that I had to buy this book.

Don't get me wrong, it's very pretty, the cover is nicely designed, I agree with the grammar/punctuation rules, the little tabs are handy...

But...sorry, Wadsworth, I was already seeing someone. His name is Gregg...and we went out for two years before you came along...

Not only that, but the price is pretty high, and I'm already a bit of a grammar geek, so I don't need to look up that much...it's not like the Bible, where you need to keep studying it. If I know what a comma splice is, then I don't need Wadsworth around to tell me...

So it's not like this book is bad. I just DON'T NEED IT. Sad waste of $40...

But Torrey made me do it, and Torrey is worth it. ;)
