Mary Norris has spent more than three decades guarding The New Yorker’s grand traditions of grammar and usage. Now she brings her vast experience and sharpened pencil to help the rest of us in a charming language book as full of life as it is of practical advice. Between You & Me features Norris’s laugh-out-loud exhortations about exclamation marks and emoticons, comma faults and swear words; her memorable exchanges about usage with writers such as Ian Frazier, Pauline Kael, Philip Roth and George Saunders; and her loving meditations on the most important tools of the trade. Readers and writers will find in Norris neither a scold nor a softie but a wise new friend in love with language.

It was Connor I was supposed to long for. But I’d woken up in a tangle of sheets, clamoring for another of Rafe’s touches-even if it were only in a dream. Squirming again, I felt a sharp elbow in my ribs. “Be still, will you?” Brittany Reed whispered harshly beside me. Like me, she would soon be turning Between You & Me: Confessions of a Comma Queen free download pdf seventeen and would experience her first transformation with the next full moon. I’d known Brittany since kindergarten. We were friends, but I’d never felt as close to her as I did to Kayla-whom I’d met only last summer, when her adoptive parents had brought her to the park to face her past.
