Reporters and sociologists occasionally make headlines by going "undercover" in the working class economy, taking low-paying jobs and "trying to survive."

The results are almost always (unintentionally) laughable. Kaleita doesn't need to go undercover to report from the front lines, though. She's been living there her entire life. There's a raw authenticity to her voice. Her writing is unpretentious yet inventive, riddled with a healthy dose of black humor...If I were her manager, I would fire her on the spot after reading this book. Not because she's a lawsuit waiting to happen--she might be--but because This Book Is Brought To You By My Student Loans makes it clear the job she's most qualified for is being a writer. -- Andrew Shaffer, author of Hope Never Dies: An Obama Biden Mystery

Funny, Sincere, Real, Sad - A Must Read

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2019

Real, fresh, hilarious, sad, and every emotion you can think of are evoked in these essays about living life to make ends meet. Kaleita manages to be both very funny and very sincere, revealing details about her life that make her immediately relatable to anyone who has ever worked a job they hated because they had bills to pay. She also highlights the internal class struggles that influence our actions as well as the horrible price we pay to try to 'have a better life.' Is a college education worth it if it comes with the pile of debt necessary to fund it? Or is that not really the question we should be asking at all? Kaleita asks these questions and more, providing lived experiences to support her case that there isn't always a good answer when the system is broken at the foundation.

A must read for anyone who has felt the weight of financial woes, college-related or otherwise. Highly recommend.
