So this is definitely not a literary masterpiece… But I enjoyed it anyway. It might annoy some people because it's written in a very conversational and not so professional manner. But, there are lists of practical money saving ideas scattered throughout every chapter. There wasn't too much new information in this book for me. I do think that this book refreshed my memory on a lot of frugal practices I once had in my college years and have now forgotten. I think it's worth a read! I think it's worth revisiting the basics from time to time.

FYI- her YouTube channel is fantastic!

Conversational thoughts, but no real advice

The author is a dear woman (as seen on her YouTube channel), but I was disappointed in this book. I was looking for some useful information but was met mainly with general, even vague, ideas. I honestly think her videos are more useful. Good on her for trying though!
