What Textbooks Do You Use For Learning Chinese?

What textbooks do you use for learning Chinese?

I noticed that my current textbooks at my exchange uni in China are noticeably different from the textbook used back at my home uni, and now I'm interested in knowing whether the content varies drastically overall.

I'm curious to see what are some of the other textbooks that used for learning Chinese and how effective you would consider them to be, so please feel free to share your thoughts!

Pondering whether or not to re-take the HSK4 exam (without the speaking this time) since I failed to meet the passing mark by around 10 points last time and I refuse to believe that the past few months of studying wouldn't be able to give me that boost.

Thank you for the tag, it's been a while since the last tag game!

Last song: Annie you save me by Graffiti6

Favourite color: Red

Currently watching: The mystery of the Third Planet. This was one of my childhood movies growing up, an animated soviet cartoon set in the future about a girl named Alisa who travels with her zoologist dad looking for new animal species around different galaxies, and their adventures.

Spicy/savoury/sweet: Savoury, but I also like sweet if it's not too sweet.

Current obsession: Polish. My uni language association is offering polish classes this term and I decided to try it out, as I initially thought that my ukranian would help, but turns out that chinese is more useful? I guess the tones help with the pronunciation and help make more sense, so I guess i'll see how this goes.

ty @peachiehambo :D Last song: GoodBand - 他們說我是沒有用的年輕人

Favourite color: Red or black

Currently watching: Genuinely can't remember the last time I watched a TV show

Spicy/savoury/sweet: Usually sweet, but since I switched to OMAD my sugar cravings have gone down so much! So maybe savoury?

Current obsession: My beloved son Tofu who is a wonderful bundle of anxiety and hatred for humanity; honey black tea from 水巷茶弄; this cute app called Finch that helps a bit with self-care
