I'll tell you right (write!) now that this is NOT a book review, but I justify putting this here because I'm convinced that at least part of my addiction to reading is word lust.
Lake Superior State University is known for its annual List of Words to Be Banished from the Queen’s English for Mis-use, Over-use and General Uselessness. Read people's comments about why they want to send the words/phrases packing.
On the other end of the spectrum, is Wayne State University's endeavor to revitalize underused words of merit, Word Warrior. You can engage in an abecedarian activity byreading through the whole list.
