I am quoting a statement I read on a great vocabulary book:

"ALL DESK DICTIONARIES ARE GOOD. THE ONLY BAD ONE IS THE ONE THAT ISN'T USED "

I hope you got my point. :lol:
All grammar books are good. the point is how you use it wisely. ... it also depends on your taste. So none would answer your that question regarding "which one"

I find this query too general.

ermm join some library/ club or some association where English speaking is compulsory... that might help.
Speak with yourself. Maintain a diary. write everyday.

Watch more TV (news / serials) channels (*and not Hollywood movies since they are more stuffed with action than dialogues. ;) )

[ I hope you are not asking members here to spot the grammatical errors on your post. ]

Thank you for your reply and suggestions.

I am not asking anyone to help spot grammatical errors. if anyone has so much free time he is most welcome to do do :) 8) .

my sole purpose to write last post was to ask suggestions by looking at my other posts, from their one can have idea about my english writing skills.

from "better" i mean which one is easy to start with and explains ideas at almost beginners level.


Suggestions/advices are welcome.

Dont bother about my last line I was just kidding ;) in fact I don't encourage other members too to do (spotting errors in others posts) so. Oh! I forgot to add a smiley there... sorry ;)

Anyway back to the topic:

If you have all three book ready : why dont you try each one... check first few pages of each book and compare.
I again say it varies with person to person. Some people like PR that dosent some people like ManhattanGMAT...

I think Eric has posted a better reply on your log...

I can assure you if you study with the Manahattan Grammar book
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/097480 ... atthegmat-your SC skills will improve significantly. They did for me to the point I am now better in the verbal section (used to be the oppositive)

As far as RC I read a lot of articles from newspapers with a good reputtaion such as New York Times, try to pick the difficult ones. https://www.nytimes.com/

For CR I practiced with diffirent guides and also with resources form this community. Refer to the CR section.

Hope it helps
