Not for most teenagers.

Seeing these other reviews, I felt I had to add my own, since none of them were really nice. The book wasn't the most thrilling for most of the gum snapping rabble that high schools are full of. But for more mature people it was interesting. Don't go by the reviews from people who tell u it sux and they type like that.

I thought that the book was very good overall. It did have drawbacks though. Some of the things I thought were not very interesting. But I thought that the court scenes and racisim scenes were very well written. I could very well imagine myself in the position of characters. The characters were good also. There is a lot in it about fear. It describes the fear and suffering the feel very well.

WONDERFUL, INSPIRING, PHENOMENAL

I personnally thought this book was great! And, that's suprising cuz I had to do it for an english assignment, and yet, i even loved the book (that's rare!) I reccomend it to all!

Wonderfully deep and compelling

I am an English teacher and a book lover to the extreme. I use cliff notes in my class to aid students with ideas and concepts in books that might otherwise be lost on them. I like the fact that the summaries are limited on this particular version, so the students are forced to read and reread to comprehend. The book itself is one of the most beautiful, well-written, symbolic books that I have ever read. I suggest using it in a unit on South Africa, apartheid/segregation, racism, Black History, or perhaps as a tool on train-of-thought writing. The book is for mature readers--average or immature students will find the book "boring" because they are unable to comprehend the depth and meaning of the novel. The Cliff Notes should help somewhat with these students--but some could never appreciate the work even with the supplement.
For those who are not teachers, and are reading for enjoyment, the cliff notes are also good just to reinforce the concepts and make your reading experience easier. However, be sure to actually read the beautiful novel itself--the harsh truths and beautiful symbols of this book are aure to enlighten.
