Book Reviews of Very Nice Ways to Say Very Bad Things: An Unusual Book of Euphemisms
Book Review: Bad Book
Summary: 1 Stars
Hated this book. Its more of a history lesson of where bad words came from and what they used to be called back in the day so basically you can now say them "nice" because she gives you the word people used back then and now they are nice becuase no one knows what the hell you are talking about if you use that word. So bad book if you bought it for what i thought the book was and good book if you like knowing where and why words came from. For sure, do not judge this book by the cover.
