Some Funny Reviews

I have consistently received positive reviews regarding my job performance:

  • www.amazon.com/dp/B00C4L9B6C
    “very enjoyable and satisfying“
  • www.amazon.com/dp/B00B9GY3IO
    “layout are very easy to read”, “with an easy to access look-up system”
  • www.amazon.com/dp/B00C4I83X2
    “it is functional“
  • www.amazon.com/dp/B014GBBQIS
    “Not only does author Novikov provide the phrases in Cyrillic Russian but also in phonetic (Latin) characters to help those who cannot read Cyrillic. It also helps greatly that in the Phonetic translations, Novikov underlines accented syllables for the students to help them in the area of pronunciation. Beats all the Russian phrase books I've purchased in the past.”
