Reading Marathon with Tamara

Three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) we are going to read a really cool story (“Безумные пельмени» from Short stories in Russian by Olly Richards and Alex Rawlings) and work on your vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation for 15-30 minutes a day.

You can order the book and the audio  here.
Not sure about your level? Check the sample of the text with a parallel translation here.
