Finally finished this book. It took me 3 months to completely read and practice all the contents in this book. As someone who has little understanding of grammar, this book really helped me learning English language.

I loved the "dummies"kind of books. I was highly entertained while being informed. This high powerful for those in hood or. I feel as if I am doing a def study class and even the pop questions. I was the writing processors Authors can also learn from reading questionable questions. To learn ones a audience reflects on ow you wright to cat the attention.

I checked this book out from my library on a whim and what a waste of time! Much like English Grammar for Dummies,this book is full of stupid examples that make no sense at all and it just left me feeling frustrated.
