Cliffs Notes, 1999

It makes you think
My teacher read this book to us in English class for a unit. I really liked this book because it makes you think or imagine what could have happened to Jonas and Gabe. I know in my class when we finished the book, my teacher asked us what we thought happened at the end, so we all gave our ideas. Some kids said that he got a job or got married or died. Anything could have happened to them. Thats ...

Analyses the play and how it differs from the Scopes Trial
I did my dissertation on the Scopes "Monkey" Trial, with one chapter focusing on "Inherit the Wind," a play in which I once had the role of Reverend Brown. Consequently, if you are using the play or either one of the available film versions, I can strongly recommend Suzanne Pavlos' CliffsNotes for Lawrence and Lee's "Inherit the Wind." Pavlos begins with the life and background of the ...

I would recommend these notes for anyone who doesn't have the time to read entire books, but needs ...

Ethan Frome (Cliffs Notes)

Cliffs Notes, 2001

A good old romance with an unexpected twist!!
I just finished reading this book for school and usually I can't stand novels for school, but this one was outstanding!! The way that Ethan describes the way that he feels for Mattie can just bring you to tears. Zeena and her potent attitude make the story and the romance between Mattie and Ethan even more exciting. If you liked the romance of Romeo and Juliet, you will love Ethan Frome!!
