- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I learned from this book that attractive people can sell anything. This book was a really quick read(I was able to finish it in a day). It has something for everyone-stories of word origins for women word nerds and picutres of the author being scantily clad for the guys.Overall, a very iformative book for learning the hidden history of popular words.
