4 out of 5 stars Abriendo Puertas   August 15, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Abriendo Puertas is a great book. It's cool to see such a good collection of authors, authors that have made a title for themselves in Latin-American writing, from Isabel Allende to Gabriel Garcia Marquez. There is hardly a more adequate book if you are going to be taking an AP Spanish Lit. course, however even if you aren't, it is still a good read. Normally I'm put to sleep by the idea of a book you are supposed to read in school, but it was fun to delve into this book.


5 out of 5 stars The Book for the Exam   July 14, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This book along with "Tomo I" are without a doubt the AP Spanish Lit Exam. I had both books during the last school year and 4 of the featured stories in the books appeared on the MC section and another 4 appeared on the free response section. Bottom line if you are looking to take AP Spanish Lit exam this is the book for you. In addition it is a great read for anyone who is wants to start reading Spanish literature. The books feature a variation of authors from all of Mexico, South and Central America, and Spain. Stories come with a brief biography of the author and provide some background of the writers. In addition colloquial phrases and complex words are defined in the same page they are printed and are marked with numbers making them easy to find in the story and list. In short I really liked this book and recommend it to anyone taking the AP Lit exam or interested in Spanish literature.

5 out of 5 stars amazing stories in spanish!   September 22, 2007
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

The poems, excerpts, and short stories in this book are extremely enjoyable. Many of the stories in this book I have also read in English, but it is always a pleasure to read them in their original language. Recommended for AP or advanced Spanish classes.
