Summary: Not to impressed.
Comment: I personally picked up this book for oaths, curses, and insults. Something to liven up some of my less polite fictional characters, you know? But after purchasing this book, I'm not to happy. It contains mostly "Sexual slangs and metaphors," a few drug terms, but nothing that really fit my needs. But if that is what you're needing the book's alright, I guess

Rating: 4
Summary: Great Research Tool
Comment: Not only informative, but also amusing. A great reference tool for writing and using correct cultural slang and euphemism. No writer should be without it. Gives origin, culture, and time period of a word or it's slang as well as a definition.

Rating: 5
Summary: Very Informative
Comment: This book is very up-to-date with the latest terms for people who need to get caught up with todays social language.
