A review by ericj
Semicolon: The Past, Present, and Future of a Misunderstood Mark by Cecelia Watson

informative lighthearted fast-paced

1.75

I like the idea of the book more than I liked the book itself. Attempts at humor fall flat, personal anecdotes add nothing, and despite about 45% of this book being Acknowledgements and Notes that I didn't read, it still felt a little long.

The first third-or-so was worth reading for the brief history of grammar education and punctuation usage, and so for that, 1.75 stars.
