A review by litwithlexie
The Etymologicon: A Circular Stroll through the Hidden Connections of the English Language by Mark Forsyth

informative medium-paced

3.5

A light read and I liked the idea of the book and idea of the wording linking. However, I thought it would be more in-depth rather than just using homonyms and synonyms to explain a word, which i felt that the main point got lost due to this explanation. But the book did have some informative points that would be used as a trivial fact as the point can see very strange with out context
