The Nuts and Bolts of College Writing
>> Good overall book on college writing
Well I would give the book 5 stars but I thought it lacked a bit in advice for content It had a lot of info regarding formatting punctuation etc But not as much as I would have liked on writing a good introduction conclusion thesis etc
Still a great book I definitely recommend it
>> Well worth reading
This was required reading for a college course However I was very pleasantly surprised on the concise straightforward manner in which Michael Harvey wrote the book He covers a variety of topics that will lead to an increase in writing quality It was my one point of enjoyment in my reading assignment for the week
>> not high school friendly
I was very disappointed in this product after purchasing it for my 11th grader The book is an ode to the authors intelligence lots and lots of unnecessary explanations that serve no purpose When I attempted to incorporate it into my family s home study regiment I became frustrated with the book Yes I am college educated and degreed This book needs to lure the student in rather than repel them
