...and his gratuitous charm

I...am not sure what to make of this vocabulary-building tool.

I mean, I suppose, all other things being equal, it's probably a useful thing to have in existence. But the fact that there's actually a market for this...

...yeah, I dunno, man.

Yes, but that assumes your goal is to learn vocabulary. Now if you were choosing between rereading Twilight, memorizing a giant word list, and going to the mall....

Oooh.... reframing. You win.

Heh. I'm not saying the ebook wouldn't work for those who were trying to learn vocabulary--i.e. the people the Cliff's Notes guide is aimed at. But then again, given the existence of said Cliff's Notes guide to accompany one's probably-already-purchased copy of Twilight, the ebook would have to be pretty cheap to compete.
