Title: A Good Subject Poorly Covered
Product review: Eats, Shoots, and Leaves by Lynne Truss is often longer than necessary, occasionally insightful, and usually snarky. Although I hoped for a useful and entertaining grammar guide, I found instead two hundred pages of complaints about modern usage peppered with references to grammarians with whom the author would like to sleep. I was able to trudge through the book in its entirety only due to its brevity and simplistic style. Not worth reading again or even reading once.
