    Great book for Spanish learners

    A great book to help you improve your Spanish - level is high beginner to intermediate - so not for those just starting to learn. But the language is nice and simple. The short vocab lists at the end of the chapters mean that you don't need to stop to look up words. I feel that this book plus Olly Richard's Simple Conversations book (actually a story too) are really helping my Spanish improve.

  • Most critical review

    Not beginner at all.

    I do not get the concept of this book. I have tried hard to master it but with only a few words translated it doesn't make sense. I've been doing Rosetta Stone for 3 months too! I don't recommend this at all.
