I read through books before deciding to put them on my syllabus. Now I can determine if a book is a fit for my course within minutes by reading the summaries. It used to take me half an afternoon to decide on each book.

My list of books I want to read about business has never been shorter. I read the summaries on the plane and return with two or three ideas to share with the company.

Lynote helped me get through the huge list of books for my qualifying exams. The chapter-by-chapter breakdowns allowed me to revise 40 books in one semester without missing the important stuff.
Reader
When I reference a book in my writing, I need to be able to accurately cite, not simply vaguely recall. The summaries give me the specific ideas and quotations I want to quote.
Reader
Previously, I would spend every Saturday planning my lessons. Now, I do one summary for a novel, and I can take the quiz and essay questions directly from the notes for each chapter.
Reader
I read summaries first, then books. If the book summary makes me want to read the actual book, I will buy it. I finally have a bookshelf full of great books.
