Summary: Just Slightly Overrated...
Comment: While it may seem heretical in light of only glowing reviews to give Mr. Glannon anything shy of five stars, I must say that while this book is quite helpful for most law students, some may find it just a bit wanting in certain areas. Don't get me wrong: Glannon will help "explain" the basics as well as some of the more nuanced areas of civ pro; use of this book in conjunction with your casebook and class notes will definately provide you with a sound understanding of this sometimes bafflingly obtuse subject.
However, for one whose goal is to excel well beyond the pack, Glannon alone will not propel a student to get the coveted law-school "A+." The law of numbers alone dictates this result: Glannon is the most widely read civ pro supplements available - you will be getting nothing more than what pretty much all your classmates get. Your solution? An additional supplement. For me, it was Gene Shreve's fantastic "Understanding Civil Procedure" - a more dense, but extremely tightly packed supplement. Everything you should know for civ pro, + a little more is in Shreve.
To summarize, get Glannon for the basic explanation; get Shreve for the edge. Glannon is great if you've got some time on your hands to digest the examples; Shreve is great if you've got the basics down and want to attain insight beyond most of the competition.

Summary: firstyearlaw
Comment: While I don't advocate that this book will give you an A on your civ pro exam, it can help you understand in more depth what's going on in that class. It gives wonderful examples and explanations of specific civ pro problems that can help link up the different areas of the subject. If you're struggling with civ pro, I suggest buying this book. If you take the time to read it carefully, it trully can help.

Summary: A must for first year law students
Comment: If not for this book, I would have been lost in Civil Procedure during my first year of law school. If you are starting law school, get this book. Anything I didn't quite understand in class, this book explained. The examples are invaluable in studying for exams.
