Hello.

I am trying to edit my own answers rather than only asking to correct my mistakes. I think it's more useful and saves time.

It's again a question from the book What Do You Think. "Would you kill animals for fun or sport?"

"It's too hard to imagine for me." I changed it into "For me, it's too hard to imagine that." But can I also use "for me" at the end of the corrected sentence? I don't like it, though.
As in "It's too hard to imagine that for me."

This is getting more than a little old, Rachel. How do you punctuate book titles? Who, or what entity, is the book's author?

I remember. I have even copied it into my notes. Please don't think I am careless. I should use italics. But I couldn't.

Using quotation marks is equally valid.

The book doesn't seem to have an author. Could you please correct my statements?

Isn't this the book we discussed in another thread? The one that has a URL in place of an author?

"For Me" works at the end, and would not be unusual. And sorry Rachel for a direct answer to your post. ;-)
 
Yes, it's the same book.
