Weird in a World That's Not Book Review

An honest, sharp-witted, practical guide to help you get and keep the job you want—from an outsider whose been there and done it, a woman who went from being a broke, divorced, college dropout to running some of the biggest websites in the world.

I liked this book.

Funny, warm, personable, insightful, and interesting. For a woman to go from the lows of her life, to turn it around and make a difference for herself, her staff, and readers is inspiring.

Thoughts in the book I really enjoyed:

"It is unlikely that a career path will hit you like a lighting bolt one day."

"Have courage and try new things."

"Be great with people."

"Work hard because nothing is handed to you."

I would recommend this book because the author hits on something important. You do not have to be perfect to get ahead in your career. You just have to be yourself.

Here are places to purchase the book: HarperCollins | Amazon | Barnes & Noble

 

Note: I was asked to review the book. At no time, was I given payment or a piece of book sales. I was asked for my honest opinion and it is here in this post.

"It is unlikely that a career path will hit you like a lighting bolt one day." Boy, is that the truth! I'm often waiting for that lightening bolt, but I have to remind myself that career paths are more meandering than straight shots.

Thank you for being on this tour!
