Non-Fiction Book Review - 'Book of Words: An Entertaining Look at Words and How We Have Come to Use Them' by Tim Glynne-Jones

A humorous, modern take on the origins of certain words, grammar uses, names, phrases, famous quotes, rhymes, anecdotes and even swearwords, throughout our English-speaking times. It's not very long, and I admit to skimming some of it, but it's worth anyone's intellect. Oh how I love the English language!

Final Score: 3/5
