I got this book as I saw it had very good reviews on Amazon. I was not disappointed. I read half of it in one sitting. Alot in here that can help a gal, especially if she lives on her own. A must have for any gal.

the work field, to which types of canned tuna to buy, so this is a great substitute! I will definitely give my daughter this book when she is old enough. I highly recommend this book to any woman no matter her age, and strongly suggest reading it along side your daughter!

This had quite a bit of useful information. Some it was meant for women between 20 to 30 and since I am a bit above that age group I just flipped past those parts. It was a good guide though that I still refer too occasionally.
