A review by meganivy04
The Elements of Style by William Strunk Jr., E.B. White

3.0

Grammar rules and writing conventions are needed, but I definitely struggled with this book’s set of rules. They seem rigid and some seem out of date. Not sure why exactly... I just don’t see myself turning to this book for writing suggestions versus another book. That said, I understand the significance of this book: It has influenced many other books that I DO enjoy and can see myself going back to time and again for writing advice. So while the star rating is lower based off my personal use of the book, I appreciate it for what it is.
