I have a test on this book tomorrow. What would you recommend I do to get the best understanding without actually reading this book. Cliff notes, sparknotes, watch the movie? halp.

Kill yourself. If you can't take the time to read a book, then you shouldn't continue living.

"What would you recommend I do to get the best understanding without actually reading this book?"

Drop-out of your literature course right now because you really shouldn't be doing it.

Yeah it's not like people have more important things to do than read walls of text all day

If you're in high school, use Spark Notes. If you're in university then you're most likely fucked. You can't understand something without actually reading it.

Or you could try partying with English majors. We get drunk & closely analyze each other's favorite books until the other person doesn't like them anymore. (That means they lose.)
