EBOOK - Cranky Language Lady

CLL – The Ebook!
With Cranky Language Lady, author Cheryl Miller Thurston comments on our changing language, but not in the “Oh my god, the language is going to hell!” manner of many books about English. She has her little pet peeves (hence, the “cranky” in the title), but she also knows that many battles have probably been lost and we may as well get over it. When she does give a cranky viewpoint, it’s served up with good-natured humor.

Thurston makes confessions about her own language black holes, shares stories of miscommunication and misinterpretation, laughs at some language fads and complains about others. Her often quirky observations provide entertainment as well as food for thought for anyone interested
in words and how we use them.
