They even published a Rivstart B2-C1 last year. Still, the books are not cheap, I I don't know whetherthat will ever have an relevance for me, but it's nice to know there's material up to C1 at all. Even it's not really C1 as it is with many courses, I assume one still get's further than with other series.
Having read the "Wat makes a good log"-thread: What would you like to read more in this log? Books? Resources? Weird stories like Elias, the shark? Or something completely different?*
*Except politics due to the forum rules, although it would be actually useful to write about a certain aspects of politics in a language other than German or English.
I have to say, I didn't get very far through the Rivstart books. Maybe up to chapter four or five in the A1-A2 book? But I'd say they're a pretty good choice. They are geared for classroom learning, but the group/pair activities I saw can be done on one's own. They are also the books used by SFI (Svenska för invandrare) here in Sweden, as far as I can see. Otherwise, I sing the praises of FSI.
As to what makes a good log: I wouldn't profess to know. I've been following your log because I like it, so I'd personally say keep on logging how you want to it's working for me!
