Reddit reviews Contracts, Fourth Edition, Textbook Treatise Series, Paperback (Aspen Student Treatise)

I tried out lots of supplements my 1L year and by far the best contract book, for me at least, was Farnworth's student-version treatise:

It's $45 but I think it's worth it. As with all hornbooks its a bit dense but it's very readable and it is very helpful with pretty much everything you'll do for the common law of contracts. It's detailed enough, even as a condensed version of his 3-volume-treatise, that you'll be able to use it for many years.

As for the UCC, if you get into it, the Sales and Leases E&E was very good. Some E&Es are good, some aren't so good, but I liked that one a lot. The other good E&E was the Civ Pro one by Glannon.

By the way you probably don't need supplements at the beginning of your 1L year; they'll come in handy once youre a month or two in and beginning to get the hang of things. I would advise you take the time at the start of the semester to check them out in your law school's library and see if they actually help you before buying any.
