Laughed my butt off. Read entire passages outloud to my husband, so he could laugh also. Lent to my friend, but she didn't like it. So I'm thinking the humor of this book is the type you'll either love or hate. Very quick read as it's written like a blog, which is what it first was.

A fun book and a real quick read. I had several laugh outloud moments.

As a blog, this might have been fun to read and I might have laughed a few times. As a book, I find it dull and the funny moments are few and far between. In fact, I've given up less than 100 pages in. I don't give a hoot about Broke Angie.

I loved this book! The author is hilarious and witty in her account, written in diary format, of her fiscally challenged, experience filled years in college. Anyone who has ever pinched a penny will really laugh (belly-laugh) when reading this book.

Hilarious! I laughed out loud several times and had to read it aloud because my boyfriend kept asking me was funny. I think this is a book that you will either love or you will hate. I don't think there will be any middle ground.

You have to have the right sense of humor to enjoy this book. I absolutely loved it!

A decent read that I read mostly to pass the time. It's funny at times, but maybe only because I can relate because I'm also a poor college student. Entertaining in a mediocre kind of way.

This book is sure to please quite a few people. But for me, the diary format and the way the tales were told just didn't quite float my boat. Decided not to finish it and passed it on.
