I loved Jen Lancaster's Bitter is the New Black: Confessions of a Condescending, Egomaniacal, Self-centered Smart-ass, or Why You Should Never Carry a Prada Bag to the Unemployment Office! It is great, and I can't wait to read her other two books.

She's sassy and smart. She says everything that I want to and don't. And I love her book titles. She is creative and funny. I couldn't put the book down. To read her current posts, go to Jennsylvania.

If you're looking for a job, are under-employed, or just need to appreciate what you have, this quick read is worth it. Bitter was published in 2006, but it fits in perfectly with today's economic situation.

Happy reading and happy Labor Day weekend! Hopefully, Hurricane Earl passed by you without doing damage. He blew by early this morning and left nothing but grey skies.
