    August 28, 2007: For me, not a bad book, really. I recommend it for those who need help on understanding what diction and syntax are. This book will also help you learn how to better structure your essays, making it easier to write an effecient essay in the alloted time. Don't believe me? Well, I took the AP Language in 2007 and passed with a 5. I really recommend the book for those who are confident they can write, but want to know how to write BETTER, a skill definitely needed for the AP.
