I haven't logged any textbooks so far, but because of the amount of blood and sweat I put into this book and the Physics 1-2 exams, AND NOT BECAUSE I FUCKING NAILED THEM, I sincerely felt this little book deserved a spot on my shelf. Giancoli does a solid job at simplifying and explaining concepts with smart and clear examples. And has a sufficient solution manual for end-chapter exercises which are pretty great. Even though I'm pretty sure that this will be our last rendezvous, it was a pleasure sir.
