The First Five Pages: A Writer's Guide to Staying Out of the Rejection Pile by Noah Lukeman

4.0

As a beginner, I thought this book was excellent. It made me think about a lot of aspects of the craft that I had never paid any attention to. The examples, while basic, clearly showed what not to do, which is useful for someone of my skill level.

I think this book should primarily be read by beginners, as it gives a basic overview of the most important points of writing. Advanced people should seek more depth in other sources.
