Customer Reviews for: Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing

Rating 5 out of 5 - Clear and useful information for the rest of us
Grammar Girl's book is an inexpensive companion to her podcast and audiobook. Those without a background in language will love that she uses clear and easy to understand real-world examples. There are some funny pictures that demonstrate some of these, like in the part about affect vs. effect. I think it would a great book for any high school or college student, especially those currently in English 101.

Rating 5 out of 5 - do it, do it, do it!!!
Okay, you are interested in the book. That immediately qualifies you as a writer or a writer-wannabee... Regardless, just do it. Buy the book. I have found her book a delightful read and a ready reference on many topics. Is it the only reference you'll ever need? No, there is always room for more of this topic on your bookshelf, but she does a marvelous job of cutting quickly to the key issues. And the price of the book makes it a super bargain. This is one great book... You will want it near your keyboard at all times. I am a writer for professional contracts and I am always looking for help to do a better job - and this book was well worth the price. I poke through it daily... :)

Rating 5 out of 5 - Easy-to-read and entertaining
This book provides practical writing advice in an entertaining and easy to remember manner. It's the type of book that you can read in small parts, but it's also the type of book you might read in one sitting as it is difficult to put down. I use this book in my fourth grade classroom to share the many tricks that Grammar Girl has to be a better writer. My students find the book interesting and easy to use. It is an easy-to-read reference for those who want to improve their writing or those grammarians like me. This book sits on my shelf next to Elements of Style by Strunk and White. It is a great resource for writers.

Rating 5 out of 5 - Grammar Girl
I purchased this book for use in the classroom, hoping to find new and more interesting ways to present the grammar material. There are several lesson suggestions that I will implement.
