We've got to do something about this publication.

And the reviews this book is getting give me great cause for concern.

It's the beginning of the end I tell you...

I agree, it wouldn't grab my attention as something fantastic to read but, apart from someone name not spelled how others think it should be, what exactly is wrong with it?
Not every book written will win a pulitzer.

Did I hear somebody summon the BDOTGNZA Silly Names Division?

Any given name that is bestowed on children by parents who are clearly dyslexic is worthy of scorn and derision. So too are names that are made up, like Lleyton, for example.

The BDOTGNZA supports the systems used by France and Denmark where parents choose a child's name from an approved list. No exceptions.

Parents who distribute ridiculous names on their progeny should be warned of serious health risks arising from Silly First Name Syndrome.

Really, so because I (and my then wife) named our second daughter Tayla, one of us (or may the both of us) are clearly dyslexic and worthy of scorn and derision?

I would like to clear this up before I go any further.

WTF is with those reviews? Have the lowest common denominators hit critical mass and taken over Amazon

Oh dear. I suppose we must understand that it is american rather than english, and it is quite possible that they have different rules regarding punctuation and grammer as well. However all those capital letters in the middle of sentences...

I wasn't sure if there was a new sentence with a full stop missing, or some weird names appering from nowhere.

I would not buy this book.
