Law Students - Chat Thread

The dissertation probably gives it away that I'm going into my final year

Can anyone suggest a case book for land law that's actually a proper case book (like, say, Burrows's for contract) and not a sort of textbook-ish mongrel?

I hate the format of McFarlane's book.

Not really a case book, but Dixon's awesome. He also edits Megarry & Wade if you want something more substantial.

I never used Burrows, so I'm not sure what kind of Land-related thing you're looking for, but to my knowledge there's nothing (worth reading) out there like Harris' International book.

P.S. urghhhh was at the library until 1AM last night and back by 10 this morning. Depressing to have to take the night bus home. So tired.

bring on 24/7 - i hate having to leave by one when i'm SO nearly done and could just stay til 3am and not have to come back the next day.

I hated leaving at 1AM - it didn't feel particularly safe around the library.

Urgh I am here again trying to do my reading but just found out a friend has cancer I am so depressed and it's grey outside. I can't do anything, just feel so hopeless.

I know it's easy to say but try not to worry too much prematurely. Medical science is pretty good these days. Concentrate on what's probably the likelihood that they'll be perfectly fine.

Hey please help me ! I've been having problems with this question and I don't know if its accurate
The question is as follows :
Paula writes to Cory and Lisa telling them that she is offering her pet Doberman for sale at $5,000. "If you wish to buy" she writes, "please write and let me know." Cory writes back telling Paula that she wants to buy the dog but "let's leave the price to be agreed.” Lisa replies that she is willing to buy the dog for $5,000 but would need to look at it first. Unfortunately, however, Lisa's letter is lost in the mail. Paula replies to Cory agreeing to her terms. Soon after, Paula receives an offer from Karen to buy the dog for $7, 500 and sells it to Karen. Paula has now received another letter from Lisa in which Lisa agrees to buy the dog without inspection.
Advise Paula


All I want to know is it an offer or an invitation to treat if Paula writes to Cory and Lisa telling them that she is offering her pet Doberman for sale at $5,000. "If you wish to buy" she writes, "please write and let me know."

And whether Paula can be liable for a breach of contract when she sold the dog to Karen.

Why is there so much law I can't cope :/ And there is only two months left.

derp derp

breaking bad ftw

beats doing essays

see sig

for land, i recommend megarry & wade (cannot be beaten, oh the depth - i know a lot of people hated it but i loved it; it had everything one could ever need), mcfarlane for simplicity, and full judgments from westlaw where necessary.
