Grammar Snobs 1-7

I love this book!  I have been asking teachers for years to explain grammar to me, and no one could help me understand the rules.  I have always known how to write correctly, and I am good at finding grammar mistakes, but I did not know the specific rules.  This book is the best way to brush up on grammar rules.  It is funny, enjoyable, and interesting - so I actually remember what I read.  It is a relief from other books I've been reading for school.  The book is so interesting I accidentally read an extra chapter before I stopped.  

I enjoy the humor she uses to make her points.  I also enjoy the chapters were she explains why a well known rule is no longer valid.  I already knew that you could end a sentence with a preposition, but I was glad to see so many sources opinions on the subject.  It helps to know these rules, so when someone asks, I can give them a direct and confident answer.  

Responding to the last class:  I think the rhetorical triangle is a great tool.  I just feel a little worried about the expectations for our paper.  The creative writing exercise we did was interesting, but I was not planning on writing my paper that way.  I am glad we have our peer review session so I can see how other people approached their papers, and how it differs from my approach.
