Every once in a while, you encounter a book that totally transforms the way you look at things. For me, that was this book. I've been working on building craft skills for the last several months. One of the things I needed to desperately work on was Show vs Tell. (I could recognize it in writing, but wasn't sure how to do it.)

I picked up this book because it was short and focused solely on this subject. I admit my expectations were low given how many craft books have explained the concept to me, but the information never clicked in my head. This time it did. I think it was because the author kept the explanations simple and followed them up with exercises. If you've been struggling with this concept, then I cannot recommend this book enough. It seriously changed how I look at my writing. ( )

Very much preaching to the converted so the impact of the writing may well be lost on me. A good reference.
The people who would get more from this guide, unfortunately, likely don't understand the concept enough to know they are deficient. ( )
