A silly romp into a world full of freebies, indulgences, and women who can avoid sitting on nasty public toilet seats, this book is a great palate-cleanser for the more serious reader and a fun read for any girl.

I learned how to be a "hip-chick"... LOL!
Actually, maybe the best advice, thus far, is (in detail) "How to Pee Standing Up!" Something all of us women at one time or other wished we could do!
Another chapter which I could have used last year is; How to Survive a Bad Job... While a lot of the advice in this book is tongue in cheek - there is actually a lot of good advice too. For instance;
#1. Take walks at lunchtime. Exercise helps clear the head and relieves you of any homicidal tendencies you may have developed.
The first three ideas are actually resonable and good advice the fourth is funnier;
#4. Try to get laid off. That way you can collect unemployment while you job hunt.
I'm enjoying reading this book...

This book is so strange...And yes I actually read it! Though I'd only recommend this book if you are a) bored out of your mind b) need something funny c)down right DESPERATE for a book or d)it jumped into your hand as you were passing it on your way to the counter to ring up your other book(s) (story of my life)

This book made me laugh, but didn't give super great advice. Some of it was a bit....how do I say? Raunchy (sp?)? However, if just looking for a fun read then it's a good one-in the bargain area of Barnes & Noble is where I found it. Think I will send it to a friend for a good laugh.

Just not my cup of tea. This book did nothing for me. I skimmed through a few pages, but it's mostly stuff I already know, or have zero interest in.

I gave it 3 stars because it is still well written and funny, just not to my interests.

I think the author wanted to portray a glamorous persona, but instead came off as kind of entitled and bratty. Many of the tips are manipulative, and I just wasn't a huge fan.
