Customer Reviews

Laugh Your Gluteus Off

A good review for SAT's, this was required summer reading for sophomore year. It made learning fun though as the confessions, which included important vocabulary words, were interesting stories to which students could relate. My personal favorite confession was about a girl learning to drive.

Word Nerd Mania

Good book. Its required for more than one scholarship and its funny besides. Don't know if it'll help with SAT, but worth the cost.

BEST vocabulary prep book

I'm 17 and about to be a senior. This book is one of the best book I have read. It's fun and educational (usually this 2 adjectives doesn't fit together, but this book made it possible). I think I'm very prepared for many vocabs that the ACT or SAT will throw at me. This book had different stories that you can all relate to. From being a diligent kisser to being a ghetto super socca star. It's all confessions. You think--dang, these are actually kids, and I'm going through the same (some what) thing as they are! And look at where they are now- Yale graduates what now. To be cliche--this book puts the fun in fundamental and enjoyable read that you will laugh your gluteus off!
