Truth up front; I barely started reading and found a glaring error which has put the veracity of the rest of the book in doubt. In trying to explain when to use "lay" versus "lie" the author stated the past tense of "lie" is "lay" which is correct. She then demonstrated the correct usage with this sentence; "Five minutes ago, she told him to "lay" down on the floor and bark like a dog." That is incorrect. "Lie" is correct because it is linked to the "to" infinitive (the object clause of the the verb "told") and not used as the past tense verb in this sentence. "Told" is the past tense verb in the sentence. Correct usage of past tense "lie" is, "Yesterday, I lay there thinking about my mom."I'm not sure I'll read any more of this book. I may know more than the author.
It's been +30 years since my teachers pounded grammar lessons into my brain. I was interested in a refresher. Jenny is extremely knowledgeable and the examples are well done. My 3 Rating had little to do with how well she taught the subject. My rating was due to frustration over constant innuendo, "whores", "penises", etc.I play MMOs and General Chat is full of genitalia discussions; copulation adventures with someone else's mother and language to troll dispute. I am not prudish to a culture intent on sexual prowess and promiscuity. I just wasn't invested into a grammar book that used it as a foundation to learning. Otherwise it IS a good book.
Although this is a basic grammar book, it is well worth reading. Jenny Baranick managed to make grammar rules entertaining with her slightly off-color examples. I will never view Goldilocks, Paris Hilton, and Johnny Depp the same way. The transition from print to e-book format did not work. The examples were too small and hard to read, but her commentary was thorough and circumvented that problem. I highly recommend this book.
If you want a tilillating, provocative peep under the covers and into the inner sanctum of good grammar and punctuation, “Kiss My Asterisk†by Jenny Baranick will fill the bill. But be warned: the author’s unique pedagogical approach definitely does not include the dry, academic rules generally associated with learning the fine points of English grammar. Slightly irreverent and decidedly naughty allusions may make you want to shove your Strunk and White “Elements of Style†handbook back in the drawer in lieu of much more entertaining grammar lessons! If you need to know whether you should “lay†or whether you should “lie†the leather whip down by the handcuffs, check chapter one and it will set you straight about those kinds of pesky spelling errors. References to penis envy when viewing Michelangelo's David form a slick segue to the introduction of plural pronouns. The topic of sending embarrassing emails was deftly covered by comparing hitting “send†too early to premature ejaculations. Need to know once and for all whether or not size matters? The chapter on en, em and hyphen dashes will set you straight. Or if you need advice on whether to use numerals or words in describing how many orgasms are faked every day, it’s all there. So set your expectations aside and buckle up for a great ride into the world of better writing. I loved the book!
I was looking for a quick, entertaining reference to help remind me of all those pesky little details I've become sloppy about using. I've recently had the need to write a couple professional letters, and upon my proofreading, found that I could benefit from a grammar review. No matter how often one writes, or in which format one writes, good grammar never goes out of style. Grab a snack and a glass of wine, and begin to smile and laugh your way back to better writing.
So sad that you feel such a need to use sexuality like you do. Also, you do no seem to have a firm grasp on the subject; overcompensating with lewd illustrations didn't help.
Hilarious! Grammar being fun and funny?!! Imagine! I am from the dangling participle generation. If they used humor at this level in schools we would be a grammatically superior nation!
It was nice to learn and have fun at the same time. I also realized I did learn a lot of this in school, but have gotten into bad habits from reading other people who had bad habits, and thinking they must be right. I know I'll screw up again, so I'm glad I have the book to rely on. ... I hope I spelled rely right. : )
