A review of "Spellbound: The Surprising Origins and Astonishing Secrets of English Spelling" — 14 weeks ago
Not particularly compelling, considering that it’s a book about spelling. There were a few nuggets of fun information in here, but the author’s style and voice just didn’t do anything for me.
Moreoever, the cover yammers on about appearances by luminaries such as Bill Gates, and he doesn’t even rate a mention in the index!
