Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐Excellent condition.
⭐This is perfect for those who are past Spanish I. It has easy to follow descriptions of how to use various points of grammar. Irregular verbs are laid out and you are able to practice different parts of grammar. It was well worth my money. So far, and I’ve bought a few, this is among the best to learn Spanish.
⭐Having gone through about a third of the book thus far, I have already encountered more typos than I can count on two hands – not nitpicky typos, like a misplaced comma; substantial typos, like a misconjugated verb in the answer key. The profusion of such errors could be quite damaging to someone just learning the language or not diligent enough to double-check.Otherwise, it’s a decent refresher book, but I wouldn’t recommend it in lieu of a real textbook or a class on the language. It’s sufficiently broad and, for the most part, sufficiently deep, if occasionally providing superfluous information. (I already know what an idiom is, thank you. Can you teach me how to speak Spanish now?)
⭐Good book, I sent it to my brother who is learning Spanish. He said that it was easy to use and he was learnig a great deal from it.
⭐got it
⭐This is a good book, has hard assignements, but stick with it, and you’ll actually begin to learn. Some of us required a great more help. But this book certainly has everything you need!
⭐This is an ok book, but not as explicit and as simple as the other Dummies books I’ve purchased (about 30 different titles).
⭐Great book, brand new !
⭐An excellent book for brushing upon your Spanish and for looking up explanations relating to the grammar which can be somewhat complicated.
⭐Excellent – it covers everything and it has made me learn more, its easy to follow but I wouldnt suggest it for a beginner – there are little tests in it too which are good
⭐The offerings are great but the print is so ridiculously small that it is no fun to use as a learning tool.
⭐Great product and fast shipping.
⭐Very good.
