Thread: books

I was just wondering does anyone have any suggestions on good books for learning Russian. I know there is a bookstore on this website, but I dont know where to begin and which books are worth getting so if anyone has any good or bad opinions on books to get or not please post it.
THANK YOU!!!!

well if ur a complete N00б "russian in 10 minutes a day" is good, its where i started out, and i reccomended it to a few people on this site awhile ago, one of them actually treid and he said he liked it. its easy, and kinda fun, i got it for free from the library when i first started out a few motnhs back (i havn't sold out yet)

"Russian for Beginners" by Charles Duff... its slow and easy and is for the absolute beginner. It offers a step-by-step approach. GET THIS BOOK.

I have "Russian for Beginners" by Duff also. I'm only about 30 pages into it and it seems pretty good. I have a couple other beginner's Russian books too but they blow compared to Duff's. I want to get the New Penguin Course book too but it's hard to find.

The New Peguin russian Course (doesnt have CD's or Tapes but explains everything clearly and easily.. if you get this one try to get a CD from another course)... or the Living Language Russian Course...
