Good Books?
Hola! In a few months I'm traveling to Spain with my high school Spanish class and we will be doing a family stay. I was wondering if any of you knew of any good phrase/slang books (Spain's slang) or household Spanish books that I could refer to while in Spain.
More advanced books would be better than basic ones.
Gracias!

I'm not sure whether this one features Spanish as spoken in Spain or in South America, but it gets good reviews: Breaking Out of Beginner's Spanish by Joseph J. Keenan.
I own this book and it has served me well but I'm not sure how much good it will do for you.... There are tons of idioms that you may never hear that aren't in this book that you may hear on this trip. Since it is a HS I would think that whatever you would be learning wouldn't be much different than what you've seen in class. The family that you end up staying with will teach you the common modismos of the city/region where you stay.
