Book I Ordered for my ENG 101 Class,
By Joe H. (Western New York, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 75 Readings Plus (Paperback)
I ordered this book straight from amazon, along with another book. I needed them for my English 101 class I'm taking. The books arrived very fast, and in prefect condition. The books are so much cheaper here on Amazon than at my local bookstore, even when you order the bran new version. I can't say I love the book, but I needed it for school and I was very happy with the whole process
5.0 out of 5 stars
