Truth be told, I was dreading reading this book at first, as it was a requirement for one of my writing classes. But, I love it. Humble does a great job of explaining details about essays but also entertains you with his great sense a humor. Instead of turning it in at the end of the term, it is now on my bookshelf so that I can use this book for reference in writing future papers. Way to go humble for getting me interested in writing essays.
