Exactly what it says on the tin!
It literally is lists of conjugated verbs (yo/tu/el/ella/nos/nos/vos/vos/ellos/ellas) (excuse missing accents), which you can either repeat or anticipate, or both. If you learn by repetition, this will help.
Starts with AMAR (reg AR verb model) in the present; repeats with slight variations (making it a question, adding 'not', shuffling the order of the pronouns; then moves on the imperfect and does the same drills, then preterite and same drills again... and so on. Each section is a short chapter so is easy to find / skip.
Beautifully pronounced, so it is easy to copy the stresses.
The order is odd: I expected AMAR to be followed with a regular ER verb but got DORMIR, but that's OK. No sentences so it's not for listening/translation skills but if you concentrate (mostly) you will likely start to skip some chapters before long coz you will absolutely know how to conjugate the verbs. Hurrah!

As a native Spanish speaker, it was very good.
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Sometimes she changes the order of the pronouns before the quizzes.
Another thing is many verbs can have different ways of being translated, like the verb “to leave”, which is translated as “salir” and less commonly known as “partir”, which actually means “to break”. In the audiobook, she translated “partir”, which actually means “to break”, as “to leave”, which is not wrong, but it is incorrect. But of course, everything depends on the context.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle?
The way she teaches the verbs is great. Moreover, I enjoyed a lot the quizzes, they are very helpful to learn the verbs.
Did Lucia Bodas do a good job differentiating each of the characters? How?
Yes, she did. She explained it very well, but in some occasions she does not tell the listener when she uses the negative form, which can get sometimes confusing.
Moreover, Lucia Bodas has a slight different pronunciation from normal Spaniards, as she is from South America, where they have another way of pronouncing verbs and words in general, a bit different from native Spanish speakers.
Was Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle worth the listening time?
Yes it was, but obviously you cannot learn all the Spanish verbs from this audiobook, as well as the colloquial forms, irregular and reflexive verbs.
Any additional comments?
I have been speaking and learning Spanish since I was three years old, as I am living in Spain, hence, learning the verbs is very easy for me. In my opinion, Spanish verbs are more diverse than the English ones, as there are more verb tenses, irregular verbs, reflexive verbs and more, which can be very tricky. I must say that this audiobook is good, even tough I already knew these verbs, and I would recommend it for anybody who would like to learn some basics of the Spanish verbs.

Can't find any structure in the book
What disappointed you about Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle?
Very little explanation, didn't know what I was meant to be listening too, what tense I was in, the verbs were unclear and very little translations
Has Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle put you off other books in this genre?
Yes greatly, chapters are not laid out, this is meant to be a learning book
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Very little explanations
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Dissapointment
Any additional comments?
Very expensive considering you get no additional information, a 3 minute clip at the beginnnig of the book is not enough to showcase the book.

Super Happy!
If you could sum up Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle in three words, what would they be?
What impressed me most about this audiobook, was the level of contact you receive with a native speaker, which I found really helpful and a great boost to my confidence. The audiobook is also incredibly thorough, working through several different verb forms and the audio itself is very high quality. Would recommend!

Simple, yet impressive
Any additional comments?
Spanish verb drills bundle is a great way to learn basics. It focuses on learning by repeating, and how better can you learn how to speak a certain language if not by talking? Simple, yet impressive.

Straight to the point with clear pronunciation
Any additional comments?
I feel that the Drill method used works well to establish Spanish Verbs in your memory. This audiobook covers a large amount of basic verbs and helps greatly with your Spanish pronunciation. The book is split into manageable sections and has a fairly simple structure. I found it easy to follow and the audio quality was extremely clear. I would recommend this audio book to anyone with a basic understanding of the language looking to improve their accent and confidence in speaking the language.

Myriad Verb Drills Pronounced Authentically
This is just the thing I have been searching for - a simple way to memorise verb conjugations while I work.
The introduction to the various tenses lacks detail- but it is presumed that the one listening already has this knowledge.
I especially like the way Lucia leaves room to practice at the end of each chapter.

A precise tool designed for a specific purpose.
Very simple; lacking in formal structure but good for learning verb forms.
It's like an MFL vocab class, looking at conjugations of various verbs for differing pronouns and tenses.
This will not teach you Spanish but it is very good reference for verb forms, which can be very tricky from the view of a native English speaker, as we don't conjugate in such a concrete fashion.
They're nice short chapters of about 4 mins each. The narrator slowly took me through each form for each verb, then faster (to match what you'd hear in conversation). You then have a chance to repeat in order and then complete a mix-match so you can test understanding. I found the accent a bit different to other audio materials I've used. The narrator announces that she's using a South American accent so it might be different for those using Castellano. I find hearing the stresses much easier and it's something I could easily return to several times.
I would recommend this to those who already have some solid Spanish vocabulary, i.e. the root verbs, and need to start learning conjugations. It is a precise tool designed for one specific purpose with a clear native speaker and encouraging interaction.

Great for learning how to speak Spanish
For those who can read Spanish and are looking to learn how to speak it, this is a really good, in-depth and effective tool.
This audiobook comprehensively covers every type of Spanish verb, with particular attention is given over to the pronunciation of the words. After all the words in each module is given the narrator then says them again at speed, so you become more used to hearing these phrases like they would be spoken in real-life situations.
A really good exercise in this audiobook is, during module recaps, words that have been covered are repeated at random instead of the order they were given. This technique really works really well, as you have to be able to recall the words and their translations instead of learning through repetition.
While not ideal for newcomers to Spanish, for everyone else this is a must-have that will have you speaking Spanish in no time.

What did you like most about Spanish Verb Drills Mega Bundle?
The book left me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, it really helps one to memorize the conjugation of a verb without putting much effort thanks to the numerous repetitions. I like the way they tell you the translation, group (regular or irregular) as well as ending (-ar, -er. -ir) of the verb before the start of conjugation. I also admire the fact the verbs are conjugated in all 12 existing Spanish tenses. I find it especially helpful with conjugation of the irregular verbs, as those change completely depending from the tense used.
There are also some aspects I did not quite like about the book. First of all, as far as I know, when it comes to Spanish learning books, international Spanish seems to be the teaching standard. This means that most of the books contain ‘Usted’ and ‘Ustedes’ sections in their conjugation lists, this practicular book does not have two sections mentioned, even though it highlights such sections as ‘nosotras’ and ‘vosotras’ that most of the books do not specify. Moreover, I would prefer the conjugation would be performed by an international Spanish speaker instead of Latin American Spanish speaker, as I believe this would help the foreign student to develop correct pronunciation, but it might be just my personal preference.
