Kiss My Asterisk: A Feisty Guide to Punctuation and Grammar

Overview

"Grammar has finally let its hair down! Unlike uptight grammar books that overwhelm us with every single grammar rule, Kiss My Asterisk is like a bikini: it's fun, flirty, and covers only the most important bits. Its lessons, which are 100 percent free of complicated grammar jargon, have been carefully selected to include today's most common, noticeable errors--the ones that confuse our readers or make them wonder if we are, in fact, smarter than a fifth grader. What is the proper use of an apostrophe? When should an ellipsis be used instead of an em dash?  And why is that question mark placed ""outside"" of the end quote? Kiss My Asterisk shows grammar as it's never been seen before: uncomplicated, laugh-out-loud funny, and, dare we say, a little risque."
