Better for Foundation Tier!!! - Rated
This book is quite light-hearted, and as another review says, probably contains everything you need to pass- get a C grade. It doesn't, however, contain the information i would personally say you need for the A*-B Therefore is better for foundation. I have now bought the York Notes revision book, which is much better for higher grades!!!

A must have! - Rated
If you are studying this book for GCSE, I would 100% recommend you get this book. It is a fantastic resource and will definitely help you with your analysis and understanding of the book.
The guide goes into great detail and depth, some of which is not needed but interesting to read anyway. The guide is written in a way where many quotations from the book are incorporated into the guide. This helps you remember the quotations, and helps you in understanding how to use quotations effectively.
This guide provides everything you need to know about Of Mice and Men, including historical context and a fantastic comic-style summary which will aid you greatly in remebering when each event occured. A must have for every student studying this book, no matter what grade you are aiming for or which exam board you are on.

Great for GCSE! - Rated
This is a very good text guide to help with An Inspector Calls at GCSE level. It gives you a great insight into the play and explains things very well. But sometimes it doesn't go into a deeper analysis and description which is required if you want to get the higher marks. But it has greatly helped me with the understanding and knowledge that I have of the play.

why is this book so good? - Rated
this book is fab. Because it is not a "york notes" which is fab for studying books, plays and poetry. this book tells you how to write. basically! it helps with reading skills, writing skills and essential english. it even tells you how to do a speaking and listening!! if you do not have the english skills, doesnt matter how many york notes you've memorized you wont do well... if you cant write an essay you wont do well... i learnt alot from this book. its great.

CGP books are great as they give you good solid facts with funny comic-like pictures. most of the pics are silly but they will make you smile! GCP also uses bright colours to make these books fab to look at. it doesn't matter how good the books are if they are 100 pages of black and white notes you wont want to pick them up and read it.
