Spotlight On: SparkNotes

Published by genxblah at 1:46 pm under Spotlight On Edit This

Sparknotes. Remember the yellow and black study guides we all used to buy when we either a) didn’t want to read one of our assigned Eng/List books or b) needed to have someone interpret Shakespeare for us? Well, I’m sure they still exist, even though I can’t for the life of me remember what they’re called. But now that it’s the twenty-first century and we’re online, so are the study guides! Meet, SparkNotes. Online study guides. Free membership account. And it’s from Barnes and Noble. So, it’s a brand name you’re already familiar with, you know the information is going to be responsible and trustworthy, and there’s probably a way to buy stuff from bn.com when/if you need to supplement the free materials. I also find the website to be far more attractive than the black & yellow stripes that always reminded me of a scary road sign!
