So which books are a must for studying for the SAT's?

I heard Gruber's is great for math so I bought a copy today. I'm also reading that Rocket Review is good for Critical reading, although I was surprised to find out that both Border's AND Barnes and Noble didn't have it. What should I use for writing?

since writing is pretty simple and repetitive, you could probably learn best from practice tests. but i would recommend direct hits for vocab!! it's the bestest

I found the Princeton's Review guide for the SAT to be really helpful.
