Review
This book really helped me with my creative writing skills. It helped me enhance my use of sayings and phrases such as, proverbs. When I first heard about them, I was confused but, reading the dedicated chapter, helped better my understanding of their meanings, usage, and history. The book was quite comical and fascinating, there were times I couldn’t put it down! While it occasionally referenced Shakespeare, I would have preferred a bit more inclusion of his plays. Nevertheless, it remains an exceptional book!
