I'm not a fan of Chemistry, but I found this textbook to be written in a way that made the concepts easier for me to understand. Therefore, I give it three stars even though I didn't enjoy reading it.

I want to start reading, but I do not know how to use the site to read the book

[desirae]

It’s readable enough, but if you’ve got the time, I’d suggest reading something like Organic Chemistry as a Second Language for that part of the course.

Now that my semester is over, I'll be glad to put this book aside. Of my three main textbooks (Physics, Chemistry and Biology) this one was sort of the middle one. I didn't hate it. I didn't love it. I didn't use it to study ahead, but I did use it to review for exams.

It could definitely be better written... the format for one is just confusing and it's hard to get a straight up overview of a topic, but in general it's a pretty decent book. I might use it in the future to look things up in again (i.e. reference book) but probably not unless I have no internet.

At least it's not as horrid as my physics book...

Just had to add this book to my current list since it is currently taking my every spare moment. I'm sure it is a fine textbook, but it is not my favorite subject. I'm looking forward to putting this subject past me! 4 more weeks!

Chemistry is awesome, I love experiments.

[Xue Grimm]

worst textbook ever. riddled with typos and errors. distracting layout. not helpful in the least. thankful for a professor who can teach because this book is rubbish.

By "finished", I mean that I got through the first 9 chapters, the class ended, and I'm free! It was a great resource when I couldn't understand my professor.

I especially enjoyed the study guide that accompanies this book. The content of this subject matter is like trying to piece together and take apart a puzzle.
