Antonyms/Synonyms

I find this a useful item to have around for the times I am stuck for a rhyme or a synonym in songwriting or just prose. very good.

Best in its class

Devlin's work is by far the most inclusive book of synonyms and antonyms I have ever seen. As a non-fiction writer, I find that it has become indispensible for my work.

Indispensible (essential, necessary, requisite)!

Anyone who uses words may benefit from owning a dictionary of synonyms and antonyms, and this volume--pocket-sized and inexpensive--serves this duty as well or better than any other. I can't even begin to remember how long I have owned A DICTIONARY OF SYNONYMS AND ANTONYMS by Joseph Devlin, but I can say that I keep it on my desk and consult it whenever I feel particularly bland, unimaginative, or stupid.

Great Dictionary!

This is a great book to have if you are a poet, writer, student, or just a word-lover. I used it for many of my college classes on often got comments on my word choice. It's full of great words and can really improve your vocabulary. There is even a key for pronunciation for those hard to say words!
