1.0
PS RC 22 -A book that takes place during your favorite season (5) (Tax season is my favorite season, what can I say I love numbers)
Bad with Money by Gabby Dunn
This book is a nonfiction look into the author opinions surrounding their upbringing and how it has shaped them and a lot of aggregate information from a ton of sources that I would not necessarily consider reputable. I struggle to view it as a financial book or even a fiction surrounding a character focused on money but instead a biography of someone who is and I mean no offense by this a regular person and not at aware of the book they've written. If you are a super senior (eg 19-ish) and have yet to take out student loans and don't have mental health issues the stories in this book may aggravate I'd say you may enjoy this piece, otherwise it's a pass and it's definitely not something I will be suggesting to friends or future highschool grads. I am for sure not the target audience for this book but the downside of picking a book at random to read means that you won't always end up with a match. I'm sure someone out there loves the book it definitely has a strong voice and cutesy story. As biographical piece it's moderately interesting if a little lacking in self reflection at times and as a financial help book it's not even worth mentioning even as a starter guide to words related to money it just does not pass muster.
Random one star fact : congress of owls, murder of crows, and a muster of peacocks.
A better alternative for this book imo is the Financial Diet by Chelsea Fagan it's got warts but it does a pretty good job.
