SAT studying- grammar?

Question:I'm going to be a junior this year and it's the year that I have to take the SAT. I have good grades in school but when it comes to SAT reading and grammar part, I am completely overwhelmed by them. The reason for that is I didn't grow up speaking English and I've been in USA for 4 years. So i'm still not good at English.

Last year, I took the PSAT and scored 99% in math but failing the English part. I was horrified! So this summer, I've been reading a lot and memorizing vocabularies. That has helped me to raise my completing sentence questions and reading questions. But I don't know what to do about the grammar part because my parents barely speaks English to help me and those grammar books are sooooo boring! I don't understand those grammar books. So is there anyway that I can study for it?

PS. I've been practicing those kind of questions but sometimes I don't understand why I got the questions wrong.

Thank you!

Answers:
Reading novels will increase your vocabulary and also help you with grammar. However, they have to be really good books by authors like F. Scott Fitzgerald, Edith Wharton, the Bronte sisters, etc.
