Even though I have a good grasp of finance, I like to check out new books on the subject, just in case I've missed something--or if there are new things on the horizon. One thing I've noticed over the past few years is that more and more of the titles are written by women for women. This is a good example of those titles. I appreciate that this title discusses some of the newer aspects of finance, such as identity theft and student loan debt. I also appreciate the number of stories from actual people that are part of the book. It reminds me that I need to go back and look at my finances again and do some tweaking. Recommended.
