The condition of the book was OK and was as promised. The delivery time was longer than I had expected, even though is was within the alloted time. The vendor did not respond to my email inquiring about the delivery date.
I was pleased with the cliff notes, as well as the transaction. Seller had good communication and shipped quickly. Highly recommend. Thanks.
I would never substitute Cliff Notes for the actual book, but in this case it made a huge difference. The vocabulary was so different he spent a lot of time on one page. My son had a very hard time getting into the actual book. Finished his report on time and I have no doubt he will do well on the test (using the Cliff notes as a study guide). I purchased the cliff notes for him to read. Once he understood what everything meant and the story itself, he really actually enjoyed reading the book. My reluctance to use Cliff notes is slowly changing -- using them more of a study guide in conjunction with the book. He will always be required to read the actual book.
Only read Cliff's Notes if your desperate, because the book is absolutly fabulous. You're robbing yourself of a great book if you decide to skip the book and read the Cliff's Notes.
We were often asked to describe certain characters and the cliff notes helped a lot. In my English class we were required to read this book. Although I did read the novel we were told to complete a study guide with the novel. Also if I missed a night of the reading it was simple just to scan the cliff notes and then read the novel in detail later. All in all, this cliff notes book was very helpful, but I do recommend that you read the novel because it is great.
