What review book should I get for AP Microeconomics?

I was thinking about purchasing the one from princeton review, but I got their AP Calculus review book and it's really a horrible book... so I'd rather just avoid them. It seems to me like they elaborate on the easiest concepts and leave the hardest one for you to figure out. Anyways, I've been looking through various questions and I've found that lots of people recommend either princeton's, barron's or 5 steps to a 5. What I'm looking for is lots of practice to refresh my memory, I find microeconomics to be quite easy, actually... I just need, as I said, to remember certain concepts.

So which book do you recommend?

Thank you very much! I'd really appreciate it if besides naming the book you could tell me what you liked about it :)

    Hmm ... i have the princeton one for econ and i thought it was really helpful... i'm still reading it though.

    I was looking at some other ones... and i thought that Kaplan had a really good one, they had good graphs and terms...

    i would suggest going to borders, grabbing 5 different microecon ap books and skim through them :D

    Generally I think the Princeton Review has best questions but not the best explanations. Barrons has better explanations but worse questions. You can't go wrong with either one! Why not get both though, so you are well prepped? :)
