I love this

This was a simple and easy to understand English Lit book. I enjoyed it, however it seems to have a little too many descriptive when trying to explain things. The material was a little easier to understand than I thought it should have been, considering it is a college course.

Of all of the non-major books I've had to purchase, this was one of my favorites. I would have kept it even if the bookstore would not have taken it back.
