Re-learning Spanish

Hi,

This my first post. I took three college semesters of Spanish quite some time ago and would like to re-learn the language. I was never fluent, just well versed in grammar and vocabulary. I can read the newspaper, El Pais, with lots of word look ups. I find it a chore because sentences go on for ever. I've had more luck with a Spanish Twtter feed as you can't say a lot in 140 characters. I also tried the app Duolingo, but I know most of the material and need to be spoon fed grammar. I do like it for French as I've never taken any classes.

Are there any learning aids for advance learners? My main goal is to be able to read Spanish. I have a few opportunities to speak it, but not enough to gain fluency. I think I just need to get my vocabulary back.
