Why read it?
1 author picked Woe Is I as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is my favorite grammar book because it’s witty. Medicine tastes better with a few drops of honey. The important rules are explained with great examples. Learn how to put verbs in their place, find help for pronoun anxiety, and experience the joy of punctuation. What could be more fun than that?!
From Robert's list on for aspiring novelists.
