Seeking a grammar reference book...

[mahravat.livejournal.com]

Hello and please forgive me if this has already been asked before - I looked back through the club's memories but couldn't find a specific answer. I and two classmates have been studying Russian for a little over a year now, first through a community college and now privately at our teacher's home.

Unfortunately, we're lacking a nice comprehensive grammar reference book. Ideally, one that is divided into lessons would be perfect, but we need one that can be referenced at any time for answers to specific grammar questions, that can serve as a grammar "dictionary" without actually being a dictionary. I have searched for such a book online already, but I've found plenty that have both good and bad reviews. Can anyone provide me with some recommendations? My classmates, my teacher and myself would appreciate them!

And... Сдравствыте. Pardon spelling mistakes. :) I'll endeavor to participate more, but I'm afraid I'm a bit self-conscious around all of you because you know so much. Something to aspire to! Thanks for reading.

I have a great guide to grammar, but for the life of me I can't remember the title and it is at my apartment. I will look when I get back there later this week and reply again if no one else has mentioned it.
