In the book excerpt by Firoozeh Dumas, “The F-Word”, Dumas uses several techniques to hook her readers and keep their interest in her piece. It was her style, however, that did most of the work. Dumas' article has a very strong single argument that she works toward throughout her entire piece. She claims that the English language could do with a bit more “spice”, as she calls it (Dumas).

Throughout the excerpt, Dumas has paired together the use of her style with how she builds ethos in the reader's eyes. This creates a very good way to convey the argument, however it still lacks certain strengths. Had she written in a slightly more formal tone and included more evidence, she could have kept her humor and continued to build on her ethos by appealing to a more professional group. The use of an easy going conversational style in Dumas' excerpt helps to portray her claim in a way that most readers will be able to identify with, however, the style does not work well in appealing to a professional setting due to the lack of empirical evidence.

Evidence that supports this theme is that after the first time she tried drugs, Kristina's life and choices just seemed to get worse. Symbolism in the book is the monster. The monster represents whatever bad thing it is that you love in life. For Kristina it is crank, but different people have different monsters. In the book Kristina states, "Life was good before I met the monster. After, life was great. At least for a little while." This statement shows that while the monster made her feel good for a short amount of time, eventually it caught up with her and the bad thing she loved no longer made her feel
