The description led me to believe that this book was going to be of the same genre of $2 a Day and other fine works. Not so. It is a story of a 29 year old woman who gets pregnant with a guy she hardly knows and then gets a job as a maid to support herself. She complains about the maid job, but chose it over working in a coffee shop. She also whines about her parents not helping her with her predicament. Well, she was brought up in privilege in the suburbs; what has she been doing since high school? No wonder her parents think it is high time she stand on her own two feet.
She was not born to poverty, but blames the welfare system for keeping her poor and in her place. The book is a narrative on the author playing the victim. She also plays the domestic violence card, where the only violence that the man committed was punching out a window with anger. A bit of insurance fraud was added, too. A sham of a book. Don't waste your time or money on this.
