Title: Bitter Needs Some More Lively Color
Review: Throughout the first 200 pages I despised the author, but the whole time I assume I was suppose to hate her. However, it didn't ever get much better after that even though she toned down the obnoxiousness a few degrees. Upon conclusion, I felt that her story wasn't that interesting to put into a 400 page memoir. I can empathize to a degree with the difficulties in being laid off and trying to find work that will pay at her previous level. I do think she is a hard worker and am certain it was a horrible situation. However, most of the book talks about her behavior in reference to being laid off and I think she tried too hard to make herself seem funny and cute. I actually found her to be quite boring and fake (despite the fact that she constantly told stories of how NOT boring she is in life). Also footnotes in a memoir only discussing your opinion is irritating.
