I'm assuming that the errors that I saw in the book were fixed by the time they went to print but this was a fun book for being a) nonfiction and b) about punctuation. And I'm a huge dork who reads a lot of grammar and punctuation books.
Be warned that the author is VERY fond of the word "pedants" (which is odd because she does come across as one herself in places) but the sections on the history of each punctuation point are informative and brief. Another bonus? The book isn't very long but it doesn't have to be for the author to give good examples even while her tongue is in her cheek.
Four stars
