[Narengi · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely love this book. Although the actual purpose of this book is for the students who have literature exams, it was useful for me as someone who read it for getting to know English literature.
Honestly, It's about 150 pages but I spent a considerable amount of time studying it. So, don't judge this book by its pages.
to conclude, if you are looking for a quick review of literature or you have exams, I highly recommend reading this book.
