So has anyone decided about the best prep for AP Physics B?

I am confused. On the Consolidated Book suggestions thread, there seems to be a lot of opposition on which book is the best?

I have not taken a physics course prior to physics B so I need something that will have detailed explanations in case I don't understand some of the problems?

Do you guys recommend Princeton Review, 5 Steps to a 5, or something else?

Kaplan has a great review book. It combines physics B and C, but its B material is far superior to its C stuff. My teacher highly recommends it, as do her former students.
