I love trivia, I love word games, and I love non-fiction, documentary-style books. That should have been enough to make me really love this book, but I didn't. There were bits here and there I liked, lots of trivia I found interesting, but in between was a LOT of swearing, boring parts, and people who were disturbingly odd. The boring parts included play by play recitations - I played this word for this many points, he played this word for this many points, and so on. Sometimes lists of words played, usually without definitions. I had to push myself to finish, and was heartily glad when I was done with it, just to BE done with it.
