Title: Funny and helpful, but...
Product review: I found this book hilarious. Maybe it was just because I was so happy to finally have a nerdy friend I could joke around with about grammar and punctuation. Or maybe it's because I'd just read "Woe is I," a book whose author tries so desperately to be funny yet never succeeds. Or, maybe, this book really is hilarious.I think it's possible."Eats, Shoots and Leaves" is a fun read. It goes on for a chapter or two too long, I disagree with its stance on the Oxford (or serial) comma and on the semi-colon, and some of her anecdotes I'd read elsewhere first, but overall this book is about as entertaining as a book on this subject can get.It's the perefect sort of book for people who really need help with punctuation but who would probably never read a grammar book.I would recommend it to almost anyone.
