I love these books. They helped me get level 5 (A*) in both course work tasks! Very useful. I'm definitely getting one for To Kill a Mocking Bird! Amazon reviews This is a fantastic guide, with both sample passages for AQA and Edexcel, I'm taking my exam with AQA, and it has really helped to increase my knowledge of the book and to become better acquainted with the themes, methods and how to get the best results with written exam questions. The best book you can get. Amazon reviewsMore details
