Title: Born in 1967 and Disappointed
Product review: I bought this book mostly because I would love to know how to diagram a sentence, and because I thought it would take a fun approach. The book, however, assumes that you already do know how to diagram a sentence (or at least knew at one time because you learned it in school). Even if the book had taken just 5-10 pages to outline the basics, it would have given me the stepping stones to appreciate and enjoy a lot of the rest of it. Instead, I felt like an outsider looking in, and I felt a bit like the book was mocking my ignorance.Some of the content also gave the impression of an inside joke that if you didn't go to a Catholic school or if you weren't more baby boom than gen-x that you wouldn't quite get. I didn't get it.
