I didn’t have any
fiction books to share this week, so I thought I’d share some of the textbooks
and other nonfiction books I’ve acquired for academic reasons.
The Artful Edit by Susan Bell
Edit Yourself by Bruce Ross-Larson
The Best American Essays (2016) edited by Jonathan
Franzen
You Can’t Make This Stuff Up by Lee Gutkind
New Perspectives on Technical Editing edited by Avon
J. Murphy
Developmental Editing by Scott Norton
Microsoft Manual of Style
Writing Software Documentation by Thomas T. Barker
The Teacher’s Grammar of English by Ron Cowan
The editing books
are for my degree paper, while the other books for my classes. The larger ones
are ridiculously annoying to haul across campus.
What books have
you bought/received lately?
Dang! That's a lot of school books! Hope they prove useful! Heehee!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by then!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
I hope they do too! XD
DeleteSo many books for school. How are you going to read them all.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
Haha. I'm not. Grad school is all about skimming. ;)
DeleteYou poor thing! I liked school but I do not miss carrying heavy books like that around.
ReplyDeleteI won't either when it's over. ;)
DeleteYAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY TEXTBOOKS! I haven't bought any for this semester (yet). Mostly I just don't want to buy any. It's my last semester (as an undergrad - though I'm not doing grad school in the near future, so really it's my last semester for a loooong time) so I just don't want to, you know? Enjoy the textbooks, Shell!
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic weekend. =)
Check out my STS post!
Thanks! I'll try. Haha.
