Flat Broke with Two Goats

Wealthy person goes broke - thinks she's poor. She's not. Write's a bougie memoir. I enjoyed it, but a lot of people intensely dislike her.

Living near the area this book takes place added to my enjoyment. I don't anticipate living a life like this, but I liked hearing about it. And I liked hearing that you can survive.

I started listening to this on audio and could not take the narrator's voice so I switched to print and it was better, but I don't think Jennifier McGaha and I could ever be friends in real life. She does some stuff in this story that made no sense to me. That's forgivable. We don't need to be friends. What had to happen for me to not hate this book was for her to realize that she was being a bit of a brat, a super snob, and that her rock-bottom was better than millions of other people's everyday lives. Finally, I got some redemption in one of the final chapters. Also, she mentions a grandfather and states that she does not have his grit or determination. Bingo. Maybe she does now, but she sure did not in the timeline of this story.
Overall I'm ticked that this was the National Library Week Big Read. NOT ONCE does this woman mention going to the library to do anything to help her situation. How about borrowing Goats for Dummies or hey, Total Money Makeover? And, unlike other reviewers, I didn't care that she drank craft beer or spent all this time and money raising goats in order to eat gourmet cheese and make fancy soap. What I wanted to see was hope and growth and I'm not sure it's there.
I sure hope the sale of this book helped her out financially. I mean, I didn't buy it, I got my copy from the LIBRARY. But, hey.
