Good but similar message throughout. - [20 Mar 2009]
I purchased this book after reading one of the short stories in Cookie Magazine. As with movie trailers, this article was one of the best. There was only one other that really impressed me. The stories are all personal accounts which are good, but everyone...

Good Idea, poor execution - [08 Mar 2009]
What started out as a great idea was ruined by poor execution. This book could easily be titled, "Successful New York Women Whining About Money and a couple other good authors". It is easier to talk about what is missing rather than what is included. ...

Good but Incomplete - [06 Mar 2009]
I would like to say that, overall, I liked this book. It was interesting and easy to read. However, in the end, I have to give it only three stars simply because it is incomplete. The women are almost all upper middle class or upper class, almost all ...

I See Where We're Going - [21 Feb 2009]
When I got this book, I didn't realize that every essay in the collection was written by a woman. The book begins with an account that makes it clear where things are headed. A young girl and her young male friend "sell" the tissues she has taken from...

Secret Currency of Love - [21 Jan 2009]
This book was such a surprise - and a great one! I laughed, I cried and I think I saw my life flash before my eyes. This book really begins a conversation on the taboo subject of money that is an important one to have - especially now when the economy...

Strikes several chords with me... - [19 Jan 2009]
I just finished this book and would recommend it with the caveat that it is a collection of essays, rather than any kind of empirical study of women, relationships, and money. It is a fine collection that I enjoyed a great deal. It was very interesting...

Timely, relevant... a great read! - [09 Jan 2009]
