DNF'd at 20%. I found that at my level, it was confusing to read sentences full of basic errors - I don't want to accidentally learn the wrong thing by remembering bad models. I also don't make 95%+ of these errors, so ultimately, the book's not for me.

BUT. I do think it would have been handy at around the B1 level.

This book is for anyone who wants to improve their knowledge of Spanish as it clarifies those words that non-native speakers struggle with in an affable way. Filled with anecdotes and a light hearted writing style, it feels like reading a letter from a friend with some grammar points thrown in. To ensure understanding, at the end there is a quiz to take to solidify one’s knowledge. This is a great resource for those students who have an advanced beginner understanding of the language. If you are looking for a resource that covers what may not be addressed in a Spanish class, then this is the book for you.

Great resource for Spanish Learners

I have used Learning Spanish Like Crazy since the first audio course was released. I make a lot of errors when I speak, and i found many of them here in this book. I found the writing style very commensurate to learning, and the stories helped alot!
