Materials & Care
Materials: The Williamsburg window box includes a stainless steel planting box with an antique copper finish and thick iron mounting brackets with a black powder-coated protective finish.
Antique copper finish process: The planter is electroplated with a copper finish, then hand-rubbed to create an antique look, and sealed with a high-grade clear-coat protective sealer.
Optional annual protection: You may apply a clear spray sealant once per year (inside and outside) for added protection—some customers also apply it before first use.
- Avoid constant overflow: Minerals/chlorine/soil additives can contribute to spotting if water runs down the exterior.
- Not designed as a fountain: Continuous water exposure is not recommended.
- Winter storage: Optional. Clean with mild soap + water, dry thoroughly, then store if preferred.
- Mounting note: Brackets are not designed for metal railings. For railing mounting, explore HoldItMate® systems.

Wonderful
Format: Kindle
This was everything I was hoping for and more. Great world building, awesome characters and a mythology that just left you wanting more. Little snippets at the start of each chapter that hints at the history of the world at large while also slightly framing the content of that chapter? Spot on. My one issue, and I believe others have pointed it out, is the fact that the text is grey and not white, which can make it harder to read when you’re, say, outside. But that’s a formatting thing and has no bearing on the contents. I’ll be waiting in line to get the sequel as soon as it appears! Oh, since Amazon can be iffy about it, the LGBTQ+ tag is accurate!

I love this author's storytelling!
Format: Kindle
This is my fourth series by Ravensdagger, and I am truly addicted to the masterful storytelling. This series is just as entertaining and full of elaborate world and character building as I have come to expect. That said, I docked a star for the first time ever with this author because this is the first of the author's series I have experienced that contains the rampant and horrifyingly overused profanity of so many authors in this genre. Honestly, it was so disappointing and so prolific in this book that if it hadn't been just an awesome story full of so much depth and entertainment, I would have docked one or two more stars. We simply don't need those virus words constantly infecting, narrowing, and eventually taking over our much broader vocabularies as they do so very often. But the fact that I left 4 stars really does speak to how much I enjoyed the book other than that. I can't wait to start the next one, and I hope it will be as refreshingly free of profanities as this rest of this Ravensdagger's excellent body of work.

A Must-Read for College (and Even High School) Students
Format: Paperback
First of all, this book really cuts to the point. If you are skilled with skim-reading, you can get this book in about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Second, while these strategies are currently untested by me, they seem really practical. Rather than saying "study" or "write paper" or "take test", Dr. Newport lays down specific, useable guidelines for all areas that are intended to cut down on time spent on schoolwork. This helps you with more time to have fun, do extracurricular activities, or work 60 hours a week (like I will soon be doing).
Third, this is THE anti-procrastination book, although I don't get the concept of starting term papers a month before they're due as the examples did. The whole concept behind this book is making sure you've got as little work going as possible that takes as little time as possible. Doing things upfront will ease your load later when the assignments and papers start rolling in and out.
There are only a couple of issues I have with the book.
1) Dr. Newport almost makes the use of personal laptops compulsory in college. I get why it would be such an asset, but for some of us it is more of a liability than an asset. I really believe one can get through college without a laptop at a much smaller personal expense than the costs of buying a laptop/accessories, printer, ink, etc. If you already bought one, that's one thing, but if you haven't, why do you need one? Just use pen/paper and the computer labs' computers and printers. With the printers, odds are you're paying the same amount for 1000 pages that you would for toner (paper is free with the way they price it), and you don't have to drop the cost upfront, but pay as you need the printer. Financially, you're better off skipping the personal printer.
2) He didn't discuss what format to purchase textbooks, but considering he was so insistent on portability, I would probably haphazard a guess that a hard copy is the only way to go. Sure it may be expensive, but what if your Kindle or iPad gets stolen?
Overall, highly, highly recommended. Get this for your child as an early (or very early) graduation present. Teaching them these things will save them a lot of headaches later on.
One last note: This book is not for the lazy. If you aren't willing to do the work, don't expect this book to help. However, if you're someone like me who's sick of lazy and wants to convert, this book IS for you!

One more crappy college study guide
Format: Paperback
When I was taking 4 classes at my local community college, I tried to follow the part of the book that said just to learn math by examples. I ended having to drop the class because at first I was actually ahead of the professor. Then I tried this stupid book's technique of learning by examples and I ended up falling behind. The same can be said of "What smart students know" it's actually a good technique (smart students), but you end up spending hours thinking up questions. Questions can be a part of the process, but it can't be the whole process. I just bought an online course than is way better than both of these combined. It's so good. The point I'm at in the course you can memorize up to 50 items in reverse and forward. You can also tell which place in the list. An example could be
The order of my hallway:
Dog = front door
Cat = wall
Duck = light switch
Printer = holder
Hitler = chair
MAO = rug
Goku = ceiling light
Kurrin = mirror
Gohan = heater
Frieza = painting
You would then connect / visualize each word / picture with a part of your house. The rule is to visualize each for only 6 seconds while recalling can only take 6 seconds. If you miss one you have to do the six second process again until you make no mistakes.
P.S. I'm not telling anyone the name of the course or where to buy it. I want to be ahead of all other students.
Edit: I'm back in college taking two college level courses. While I don't agree with everything in this book (I have to re-read it) I agree with 80-85% of the methods used in this book that I remember. Such as not doing the reading he was right. I haven't done the reading in my psychology 101 class and have only focused on taking / memorizing / learning the notes and while I haven't gotten a grade yet, I actually feel I'm learning enough and today in class I note notes from a documentary we watched. The professor said to do the reading for chapter 2 of the textbook. I'm not even going to do it. I'm going to just take notes in class then go over the reading. I did this for my 1st set of notes and I didn't understand something in the lecture notes. I ended up re-reading that / part / example [it was on the scientific method].
I remember from taking my developmental math class that the professor was actually doing examples (even though I couldn't figure out from what part of the book they were from and / or I couldn't write every example like he said) If I had just asked questions and either watched videos on Youtube I would've probably remembered the material from that class.
I'll do another edit once I'm done with classes. I'm also going to write / provide a list of books that I think are good for learning and have good advice for college.
Edit: I ended up trying to do the advice from this book and if I didn't look up the answers for the test for my psychology class I wouldn't be in college today. I'm not saying that all of this book is bad but I went from thinking that 85% of it is good to now thinking that 50% of this book is good. The other half is crap. Such as the technique for Q/E/C he doesn't give any examples or enough examples. The other advice like making your own problem sets I wouldn't have thought of. Even though this is an all right technique your wasting time because you can just practice doing other peoples problems (like those online or from a professor) or do Bullet point concept from another book I read (I'm going to provide a list once I'm done with this review). The one technique that is very good is the lecture technique he mentions in the book. For some reason, this technique helps with putting material into memory. His section on writing papers is also very good. His explanation on how to prepare for and take exams is also good. Also, he should have made the book more visual and put actual writing from actual students other than that it's an all right book.
Here's the list of books I've read (so far) that will most likely get you A's
College Rules

How to study in college

The only book I've read from cover to cover is GT 4.0 it's probably the best in my opinion because the system in this book will get you A's. The only reason last semester I didn't get A's was because I didn't follow the system to the t. If you follow the GT 4.0 system to a t and don't get all A's she'll give you $100.
Hope this helps.
Edit 2020:
From what I remember reading this book, this applies to college level courses and even at the same time I tried using his question / evidence technique while taking a psy101 class and couldn't do it. Also he's right to a very large degree about living off of lecture notes. Living off of the lecture notes IMHO can only be done if it's a science science class or a college level math class. I'm currently taking a pre-req class and the professor explains everything. Along with the Guaranteed 4.0 technique this is a pretty decent book.

Wish I had read this sooner
Format: Paperback
This book is not that revolutionary, but very helpful. It essentially tackles three main problem areas for college students: 1) time management skills, 2) studying and exam prep, and 3) essay writing. Some of these are common sense things that many people resist implementing. If you are struggling with college, or are a high school senior unsure of what to expect in college, this book is very helpful.
The true value in this book, for me at least, was in providing the satisfaction that these strategies worked. I would often start out a semester by doing the things listed in the book. I would manage my time, study effectively for exams, thoughtfully plan out papers and assignments. Halfway through the semester, I always had straight As. But as finals crept up, I would panic. Since every other student spent hours in the library studying, I abandoned the effective strategies to follow suit. As a result, my final exam grades were inconsistent and my final papers were always rushed. This book gave me the satisfaction of knowing that I can trust these time saving strategies. You do not need to spend hours and hours on projects to get a good grade. It's okay to not spend hours in the library studying for a final. Trust that these strategies work, and enjoy your stress-free semester.
But, the book does have faults. While this book provides very useful information, I feel it misses two aspects of the college experience that can have a large impact on your grade: presentations and group projects. (Also the dreaded group presentation). While you can implement some of these strategies in these situations, it would be nice to know how top students manage working in group project settings, especially those that require research. I can't tell you how many times I've been in a group project where half the group doesn't show up to meetings, members refuse to do their work, or people drop the class halfway through the project. I still haven't figured out an adequate way to deal with these situations besides just doing the work myself at the last minute.
Bottom line, this book is well worth the money. Whether you are a college senior or a high school senior and everything in between, this book will help you as long as you faithfully implement the strategies. But do search out other resources for help with managing group projects.
