"This was my textbook for my "learn to read German in a month and a half and cross off that pesky requirement" class. It is OK for people who are trying to read German and don't care about speaking it, but the exercises and passages always throw in grammatical concepts that haven't been introduced yet, and that makes it hard on readers with questions. I was thankful that I had some previous knowledge of the language from a slow semester of spoken German. A year later, my vocabulary is small and I would definitely need a dictionary and grammar to work my way through a passage in German, but that's why they call it "reading knowledge," right?"
