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.

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. We were often asked to describe certain characters and the cliff notes helped a lot. 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.

If you are in school and are reading this book in class then this is a essential item. I did not get the cliff notes for myself someone ales got them for me and I dint even think i needed them but they really helped me. Not to just understand the book but also were the author was coming from to. It really helped me and I highly recommend this.

We had to read this book for school, and i was NOT looking forward to it. The class from last year had nothing but bad things to say about it. So I decided I would read a little bit just to keep up in our class discussions. Let me tell you, I was hooked! I couldn't put it down! To Kill a Mockingbird is the best book I have ever read!!

As a student you are required to read certain material that you may simply not be interested in or is perhaps too difficult. Cliff Notes often help with reports or summaries due for class;however, they are to be used after reading the novel firstly. The problem with this asistant is that it does not offer chapter by chapter summarization. It usually groups three chapters together. This becomes a problem when you expected to acquire help with the summaries of every chapter, you wanted to make sure you comprehend the main events and don't go off ranting about mundane details. Not to say that this is not worth buying, it can be of great worth when writing a book report and such. But I strongly advise that you read the actual novel first, even if its difficult or timely.
