Opis

Whitney will make you think, laugh and cry while she becomes transparent and honest in her writing in order for young people to learn from her mistakes, how to deal with pressure, how to cope with loosing close friends while in school, and many other issues like, sex, drugs, alcohol, financial aid, credit card companies and Greek life, just to name a few Her memoir also includes interviews from others who attended college who wanted to share their experiences through this vehicle. This is also a good read for college graduates who want to take a ride back to their college days and reminisce and laugh about those experiences "In order for young people to listen to you and know that you are genuine and sincere about their well-being is to keep it REAL & HONEST with them and not sugar coat anything. They can see right through it " -Whitney D. Smith. Why didn't you write this book 20 years ago We are almost the same age and I have to say - you re one wise young woman. You have a great story to share here. Everything about it is nicely done. You have done a great job capturing your memories and committing them to paper along with sharing your wisdom without preaching to your reader. Even though this is a personal narrative, you have written it in a way that many will enjoy and benefit from reading. Your narrative voice is very familiar and friendly - you do an excellent job talking "with" your reader rather than "at" your reader. You have a wonderful way with words. It is obvious that you have done your homework and put much thought and preparation into your work. Your book is well written. I wish more people would take the time to write their stories down like you have. I am sure it will be embraced by many. We can learn so much from reading the stories of other's lives and experiences. The greatest value in any story, it seems to me, lies in what we can learn about our own lives when we take time to analyze someone else's. Bravo Make sure y
