"Any input of these books?" Any of the books in particular?  Are you thinking of buying the complete collection of 8 books? Or only the books on puzzles? or GM's Averbakh and Beilin's "Journey to the Chess Kingdom"? (which seems to be the only one that WGM Pogonina recommended.) Or the books on the Slav by Konstantin Sakaev or the Kalishnikov by Libiszewski?

Input on any or all of them, please. She recommended the "books" from this site to me in private messages, saying "they are awesome." I infer from her statements she meant all the books, as she did not specify a subset that were "awesome." Perhaps, publicly, she has only reviewed the Journey book.
