yeah, www.sparknotes.com ..
well, at my school .. we're doing this thing called Accelerated Reader .. if you dont know what i'm talking about .. then please click "back" .. basically , i'm wondering if tha study guides for AR books would help me pass a test .. without actually reading tha book .. cause i haven't been reading my book .. LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring .. i'm only on page 80 .. and i've hadd tha book for like 5 weeks .. [[ .. i've been sleeping during silent reading .. ]] .. and i don't read at home .. there's 20 days of school left ... and there's no way i can committ to reading 400 + pages .. soo .. if i study tha study guide for my book on sparknotes, would it really help me pass tha test ? .. if i gett replys of " no " .. i'll try to study tha thing on sparknotes hard and take my chances .. edit\\ QUOTE(jnukes ( recent post ) ) eghh !!!!!!!!!!!!!
i gott 13/20 on my test .. now i have a C+ for tha 4th quarter in English .. oh well .. This post has been edited by jnukes: Jun 16 2005, 11:19 PM |

I would suggest reading as much of the book as you can. No matter hos good cliffnotes.com and sparknotes.com are..you get the ultimate story from the actual book itself.
And you CAN finish it..just set aside an hour or two every single day to read LOTR. It's actually quite interesting..it's not a boring book. Now, two days from the day you have to finish it, you can use SparkNotes. I wouldn't suggest using it now. |
