Sean Williams (2) (1959–)

English Grammer: 100 Tragically Common Mistakes by Sean Williams Ph.D. is a great and informative guide to common grammar and punctuation errors. Williams divides the book into easy to understand sections that share examples of common issues, takes a look at the rule for this specific concept and then shares how to correct the issue. Williams does a wonderful job of sharing this information in a teachable manner that comes across as relatable and not condescending which can sometimes happen show more with this kind of guide.

We all make mistakes and sometimes we just don't know all "the rules". Grammar is something I still struggle with as an adult and as someone who shares a lot of writing on the internet, this guide is a perfect addition to my bookshelf. I often need little reminders about different grammar and punctuation or how to use words more effectively. It is wonderful to have a guide that is helpful but also readable and I know I will refer back to this one over and over again!
