Some of it felt disorganized like I had missed something. It was an enjoyable story though

Good story: Funny and with some quirky, yet very realistic characters. I got so caught up in the story I listened to discs 2-5 in a marathon night!

Fun, good book for a long car ride. It's easy enough to follow and enjoyable while bringing up some interesting issues for all of us trying to make it in the working world.

I enjoyed this light funny story. Great listening for long commutes if you need a little humor on your way home. Its an abridged version but the authors do it justice.
I recommend it to all working women.

This audio cd is abridged. I wish the listings said that. Regardless, it was an entertaining listen and a good story.

It was ok. Not nearly as good as Nanny Diaries.

Another biting satire from Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus, authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Nanny Diaries.
Working in a world where a college degree qualifies her to make photocopies and colorcoordinate file folders, twentyfouryearold Girl is struggling to keep up with the essential trinity of food, shelter, and student loans. So when she finally lands the job of her dreams she ignores her misgivings and concentrates on getting the job done...whatever that may be.

Sharply observed and devastatingly funny, Citizen Girl captures with biting accuracy what it means to be young and female in the new economy. A personal glimpse into an impersonal world, Citizen Girl is edgy and heartfelt, an entertaining read that is startlingly relevant.
