We have to confess that we’ve been known to engage in hour-long debates about the merits (or lack thereof) of the serial comma, the proper usage of the colon versus the semicolon and the all-too-common and egregious misuse of the apostrophe. So naturally, we’re suckers for Eats, Shoots & Leaves, an impassioned manifesto on punctuation by British journalist Lynne Truss. This witty, humorous and at times snotty book makes a case for the value of punctuation in preserving the nuances of language. Whether you’re a stickler for quotation marks or don’t know the difference between a dash and a hyphen, this smart book will have you thinking about punctuation like never before.
