Thus far, I have neared the half-way point of the writing, and hope my group hasn't picked it up any more frequently than myself. Now, as to my thoughts, since that is what I assume one is supposed to share in a personal blog (?), I shall share a few pieces of my oh-so-intriguing notions of the book.
Firstly, this is one of the most intellectual sounding easy-reads I have ever encountered. The pages turn like a strong wind has taken them, and all the while Barbara manges to keep a professional (albeit sometimes humorous and sarcastic) tone peppered with an air the smells strongly of higher education.
Secondly, the subject is incredibly interesting. Granted, I don't plan on ever finding myself crammed into a cubicle at a desk job (begging for spare change and giving the Occupy Boston team another member of the group their fighting for sounds a far more satisfying life than pushing pencils all day), but the tales of what so many Americans are facing in their day to day job hunts are down-right fascinating. These people have the degrees, have done absolutely nothing wrong, and are joining the unemployed portion of our country with a startling quickness regardless.
I look forward to reading more and checking out my fellow club member's thoughts.
