We particularly recommend these three books to help you prepare for your IELTS test.
How to prepare for IELTS is a British Council publication which provides advice, exercises and practice tests for the four components of the test for both IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training. It comes with a CD with Listening and Speaking interview extracts. The book is suitable for home study or for use in class.

IELTS Official Practice Materials: Volume 2 includes Academic and General Training sample tests for all four modules (Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking) and answers with examiners’ comments. The DVD has a Listening test for you to practise your listening skills, answer keys and a video of three students taking the Speaking test.
