I love books about words, about people making up new words, about where words come from, and more. This book was a perfect fit for me, and I really enjoyed it a whole lot. I laughed my butt off during several words, and some words had me nodding along, totally agreeing with them. :)
Highly recommended!

I mean... It was alright. Like, just barely 3 stars. Here are some of my favorites (and/or the most relevant to my life):
Maditate: Become angrier by trying to calm down.
Theratrooper: Friend who swoops in to commiserate.
Chumbrage: Irritation on a friend's behalf.
Pleisure: The joy of doing nothing.
Bitrayal: Emotion occasioned by biting into a foodstuff you thought was another flavor.
Chewsy: Likes or dislikes certain foods for texture alone.

Read sitting in the aisles of chapters, I loved it. I just wouldn't pay 22$ for it.

Clever and amusing, this is a perfect book t give to people who enjoy bathroom reading. It is only possible to absorb a couple words at a time. I can imagine a dinner game where people are invited to think of a definition for the word read aloud, and then the book definition is read aloud, points or extra strawberries to the winner of each round.

Cute. Kind of hard to digest as a book. Might be better served as a 'fake word of the day' calendar or something.

Hilarious and refreshingly diverse in poking fun at the current generation of 20-somethings.
