I enjoyed this book. It was a fun read and the book had some strong points. I particularly enjoyed the section on unpaired words. Zafarris has a good sense of humor that comes through clearly. It was very informative but sometimes felt like a stream of consciousness, with one thing running into another and I would lose the thread. Overall though, it was well worth reading and I recommend it for people who love learning about languages. Thank you to Netgalley and Chambers for the advance reader copy.
