I Accidentally Bought The Wrong Textbook

Last week for my economics class, I was super excited to finally buy the textbook everyone raves about. So much anticipation building up! Then I got to campus and rushed to the bookstore with a list of what I needed. Without double-checking, I grabbed one book that looked promising but was actually meant for another course. Turns out it's this thick, heavy thing filled with diagrams and stats that make no sense in my context. Of course, I noticed too late, at home. Now I've got this brick of a book sitting on my desk, wondering how long until the midterm when I'll have to return it to the bookstore and hope for some mercy.
