Interesting stories

I like the content of the stories themselves and I also like how they aren't translated into English. There's a summary in English but not a translation of the entire text. I think that's a good way to test yourself and see if you really understood what you read.

Great challenge for improving your Russian skills

After purchasing the beginners edition and enjoying it so much, I did not think twice before going for this one too.

It's a great challenge, way harder than the beginners edition, but for making improvements we have to step out of our comfort zone, and this book does a great job walking us through that journey.

Highly recommended for anyone with a cool Russian language base, looking for improvements to reach an intermediate level.

Fantastic learning resource!

I'm really enjoying these Russian books, and this one was definitely challenging. I hope there's a sequel to this one!

very good collection of short stories

It's a very nice collection of short texts in Russian at an intermediate level. The stories are well written and interesting. The speaker has a very good, very clear voice. Unfortunately the text doesn't report stress marks of words, and that's why I gave it four stars instead of five. The book is a bit on the short side: each story is only about 7 minute long, for a total of 1h14m of actual reading time (the rest of the audio are summaries, vocabulary and other material).
In any case I highly recommend this book for Russian learners.

A good challenge for intermediate learners

This is another good book from Lingo Mastery and you can expect the same format as the other short stories. The stories cover various aspects of normal life but the texts will push you to learn lesser known vocabulary.

If you already have a good level of Russian beyond the basics then this book will push you further. I would highly recommend this book.
