Ratings and reviews

I love this book in physical form. Period. Ebook is not usefully made as per my understanding for learning. As this book is an activity book, you need to use pencil to try and correct yourself. That helps in learning and retention of subject. I was tempted to buy for 39 INR as an offer but after going through the sample I decided not to buy it when its not helpful even on a deal. Buy a physical book it would be around 90 INR it helps to learn. I only suggest this book in ebook form if your idea is to casually read. May be in future if some one makes an interactive book based on this that would be helpful.

Best book if you really want to increase your vocabulary..very easy to understand..fun included to keep the reader happy..no need to memorize anything as the way this book teaches, you don't need to put much effort...it teaches you logic behind the word....it takes hardly a month to finish if you read it daily for an hour or two....by the end you will realize what you have accomplished is something you always wanted to have....AllThebest

Buy the physical version. This book is amazing, but it's not meant to be read, it's meant to be practised with, worked on, which won't be possible with the digital version. In fact, the provided sample doesn't do justice to its amazing magic with which in a systematic way it can increase your vocabulary in just 30 days. Buy the latest physical copy, either by Goyal Saab or The Penguin.
