Summary: Not quiet as expected
Comment: I expected to find a comprehensive dictionary for slang expressions and idioms, but I still had a hard time comprehending web sites and follow talks, because I found only few and easy to understand idioms in this book. Also the overlapping between this book and "American Idioms Dictionary" is disappointing.

Rating: 4
Summary: Speedy Delivery, but not RETURN-friendly.
Comment: Delivery was quick and the book description was as described. However, I actually needed to return the book. When I inquired twice about Book Mavens' return policy, the professional courtesy of a reply was never provided. A return and refund could not be accomplished.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent tool for everyone, especially for immigrants
Comment: The book is an excellent tool to learn and understand a lot of expression people use in the United States and not only it offers the meaning, but suggests how and when you can use each phrase or word.

If you are studying English now, or you are a new immigrant trying to assimilate this new culture, this book has to be in your bookcase, but even for natives the book educates how use each word, because even the "bad words" are listed.
