McGraw-Hill's GMAT 2008

I'm sorry if this has been discussed - I'm new here - but I'd like to hear about people's experiences with this book. I just picked it up and it's my first introduction to the GMAT. It's seems rather easy... is this representative of the actual GMAT difficulty?

It's this book.

https://www.amazon.com/McGraw-Hills-GMAT ... 0071493409

I got it from my local library but I also saw it at several bookstores so I'm surprised that you've never heard of it. It appears that the two reviewers on Amazon are unhappy with it.

Thanks for that link. I've browsed through it several times already and I'm trying to get a few more books to add to what I have.

I have:
Princton Review
Kaplan 800

I plan to get:
OG11
OG Quant and Verbal

Any thing else I should consider? I am looking for about 4 sources.

MGMAT SC book. No one has badmouthed that book on this forum - it only gets praise. Get that for sure.
