Wish there had been more explanation of the doctrine

[Abby Moncada]

what I thought I was getting: a casebook on contracts

what I actually got: a metaphysical commentary of chicken

Okay giving this a sincere rating in impossible cause I had to read it BUT I will say out of all the casebooks j had this semester this book had the best balance of notes/intro to cases without a bunch of fluff 🏅

[Caroline Wolinsky · Rating 4 out of 5]

3 or 4 helpful cases as examples of contract law per subtopic, which I liked. Mostly well edited to highlight the core issues for first year law students. Removing a star because I only read portions assigned by my professor, and the cases I glimpsed that we didn't read were not as well edited.

I want credit for reading this tbh, love a short textbook with concise, manageable preambles. By far the best written one of the semester, fantastic class too

[Ryan Merchant · Rating 1 out of 5]

Not a fan of the format. Was essentially only super dense cases with little explanation in the notes. Definitely my least favorite case book of the semester.

[Sasha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Probably my favorite of the casebooks I've had this semester because of how concise the editing was. With each case it was clear what lesson it was trying to illustrate. Plus, it doesn't hurt that one of the authors teaches at my school and is quite a valuable resource.
