I'm exactly the age where teachers caught on to spark notes and all my highschool teachers at least had one spark notes book to show the class that they're checking your wording or whatever for plagiarism. I wonder how many were just the same ones passed between teachers the first week
Ethan Frome was easily the worst book they made us read in high school, but maybe it was because it was totally unrelatable for a high schooler and maybe if I went back and read it now I would get something out of it that I didn’t then.
But I remember hating it while I enjoyed most of the other books that were assigned like To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, etc.
I went to criticize but if I had this tool during high school I would not have read a single word of Ethan Frome. That book sucks.
My school version of this was sparknotes i don't think I read half the books I was given. Still aced all the English exams tho cos I'm built different
