I received a copy of this book free through Goodreads First Reads,

This is a very useful and informative book, I liked that it was clearly organized and easy to use, I also enjoyed that it wasn't too dry a read, I am sure I will be grabbing it from the shelf often! I don't know why, but very often need to read books have very boring firstpages, but after this they mostly get much better.
The book was good to read and to know also for my everyday work, but it took a while till I got to the right mood to finish it finally.
I received this book in a first reads giveaway

I think the book was helpful, but I don't think it was for my profile.
