It’s easy to use, well-organised, and packed with synonyms that help me elevate her writing. The layout is clear and the quality of the book is solid, making it a great long-term investment for any writer. Highly recommend! Review: Large size, not A5 like I expected - A bit disappointed this was a large book (more A4 rather than the A5 compact size I was expecting. It probably says that in the description but I didn’t notice. Content looks good but too large for my liking. More like a school textbook.
