4.0 out of 5 stars I like the book. My Spanish teacher hates it., April 2, 2007
By  LEE (Seattle, WA United States)

This is one of my favorite book. I took it to Ecuador and showed it to my Spanish teacher. She was mortified and couldn't believe what she was reading. She said that many of the expressions / phrases used in the book make no sense to her as an Ecuatoriana. Other expressions / phrases are used only by "jovenes." It simply doesn't sound right when an adult says them. She also pointed out that out-of-context, some of the expressions / phrases can easily be misinterpreted to something totally different and possibly insulting.

Nevertheless, I still enjoy reading the book. I just have to keep in mind to be careful what expressions / phrases that I use.
