I feel the need to come clean and admit that I'm a friend of the writer, but, in a way, it makes my review more honest. When Dan told me he was writing the book, I thought it was kind of a lame idea. Life after college: so what? And I was terrified that it wouldn't be funny and I would be forced to lie to him.

To my great relief and delight, the book is incredibly hilarious. From the roommates-from-hell section to the instructions on how to write a resume, to life in an office cubicle, this book is a mirror held up to the lives of anyone who ever graduated from college with absolutely no idea of what to do next, but with a his or her sense of humor intact.

A GREAT graduation gift!

This was given to me a few years after graduating from college and I have to admit that it is so true! My goodness...this man must have been following me around documenting my life (yes, I had the troll doll in my cube). From how to pick a roommate to the style of roommate and what to expect from a little old lady landlord (who I happen to have, and she talks to shrubbery, but doesn't charge me the $19.99 for rent as advertised in your book). It's the perfect book to give someone who is graduating college -- or even before!

Glad to see this book is still around. Bought it a few years after graduating college (over a decade ago!) and it left me breathless from laughter. Guess that's what happens when you can relate to the comedy.....

In fact, when we entered the bookstore, my sister and I heard a couple of other people laughing in one aisle- turns out they were reading it!

A lot of fun

I particularly like the bit about one as an employed person and FEELING THE FEEL OF BEING FOUND OUT!!

Finding other friends have changed their answering machine messages as they too SUFFER FROM THE FEAR!!!

Great stuff. The Dunn (official!) book on slacking is fun too!

Dan Zevin's first crack at writing a book has resulted in the finest humor since the famed one-liners of W.C. Fields, Groucho Marx, and Mark Twain. Enough said!!!
