Recommended by Mark Nichol, and 1 others. Mark NicholThis book is good for beginners, but I also find it helpful for people who might consider themselves experts.

You read a short, simple lesson about adjectives and adverbs, or about when you use ‘that’ or ‘which’ in a sentence, and then you can practise with the exercises. (Source)
