All possible answers are deconstructed through careful explanation and analysis, leading the student through the logic of why the correct answer was correct and, importantly, why the others were not. Important test-taking techniques and tactics receive thorough coverage throughout the text, making The Glannon Guide to Contracts an invaluable aid for first-year students trying to navigate the complexities of contract law.

Okay, not actually since I hope to avoid contract work as much as humanly possible in my career, but certainly 1L grade changing. (I say this before I've even taken my final exam, so take with grain of salt please).
I've honestly never been so attached to an inanimate object as I am to this hornbook. I lowkey want to name it. Cindy. My copy of this book is Cindy.
I had no idea what the fuck was going on in contracts. One, my contracts prof. By the time he gets to the end of a sentence, you've already forgotten how he started it. But also, more importantly, class is at 8am and I never wake up in time and I hate contracts. So I went to maybe one class a week and not having the faintest clue what was going on. He could have been speaking Mandarin and I would have the same level of comprehension.
I always get hornbooks when possible, as I'm a reading learner and not an auditory one, but this is probably the best one I've ever read. Everything, the little snippets I had written down in class but not been able to connect in any meaningful way, fell into place.
I understand contracts. How is this possible? This book can only exist as an act of God. I think I might become religious now.
One thing: there are a surprising number of typos in this book, and some places that it seems like they might have tried to edit an earlier version of the book but got something scrambled up (there are multiple choice questions throughout to see if you're following along properly; one or two of them like, directly contradicted themselves, or the explanation of the right vs. wrong answers following weren't accurate). Ordinarily, in a book that's supposed to help you learn material, that many mistakes would be off-putting, but this book is the golden child. Its mischief can be ignored. I love it so much I am blind to its faults.
I want to send the writers of this book the Autoblow 2 blow-job simulator (it's a real thing, look it up) because the amount of relief this book gave me has outdone any oral sex I've ever gotten.
