The booked Nickel and Dimed was a very interesting read, I will give a little background of what happened. She went undercover to Three states to see if you could live on a low- wage and survive financially. The three states that she visits were: Key West, Maine, and Minnesota. All of those three states her theory was proved right, you cannot work at a low wage job and live comfortably. In order to live comfortably you would have to work more than one job. All in all, I did like the book even though sometimes I felt that she was being very sarcastic and rude.
