    After two poor experiences with this seller, they exceeded my expectations with this order…hard to believe it was the same seller. The book purchased, identified in their listing as “Very Good”, was, in fact, “Like New”. The price was very fair. Shipping was slow, but that seems to be true with many things purchased in the internet. If I have a complaint, it is that the seller will not respond to specific questions about a listed item before the purchase..too many orders to do so! 🙁

    You can’t always be sure when an item is listed “like new” but this seller delivered a book that is just that. I’m very pleased with the condition of the book and the pricing was excellent compared to other sellers online. It was packaged extremely well and arrived with no wrinkles or folded areas. I made a great purchase and I now look forward to purchasing additional items by this author from this seller. 10/10 satisfaction!

    Great Service! Very quick shipping and book was sealed nicely in a protective envelope, which isn't common nowadays. Book in condition as described. Very satisfied with the value.

    Thought-provoking.

    Thought-provoking novel. Themes of utopia, freedom, security, choice. I’m using this as a book study with a group of mostly young adults. Similar to Brave New World, 1984, Fahrenheit 451, but with an elementary/middle school reading level. There is also a movie version, but there are some major differences between the novel and the movie.

    Feel like this was a good book. Read it back in middle school. Watch the movie from what I remember. Does a pretty good job but can’t wait to read the book over again.

  • The book was not in the best of quality

    They write the listing making it look like it’s perfectly fine and then when I got the book it was full of highlights and broken the books spine was coming off.

    My son should review this, but the quality and price was perfect for him to read, highlight, and use for school.
