Which next book? And other book questions...
So I have finished Madrigals Magical Key To Spanish and currently in the middle of Living Language(Audio CD and Work Book)........ Now between the two I definitely learned more quickly with Madrigals book and I am now convinced that writing exercises in sentence form is the way to go. BUT Madrigals book is dated and some what simplistic. Living Language is great for pronunciation, and I am able to spot words more quickly when I hear them at work(with the ESL guys).
I am looking for my next book and I am trying to decide between two....
1. Practice Makes Perfect Complete Spanish Grammar by Gilda Nissenberg
2. Easy Spanish Step-By-Step by Barbara Bregstein
Also I have read that A New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish (Volume 1) by John Butt is the best Grammar Text Book you can get, would you recommend this? I currently own the Vistas 4th edition I bought used for $12, IMO is not very good, kinda of a waste actually.
Any alternative recommendations are welcome.
