Save Karyn

I just finished the book 'Save Karyn'. This girl also has a blog 'Pretty In The City'. It was a good book. It was non-fiction about how she moved from Chicago to NYC at age 28 and ran up her credit cards to over $20K. Then, she made a site and asked people for money & they actually sent her money to pay off her cards. She also sold a lot of her expensive items on Ebay and in less than a year, she was debt free.



Karyn is really funny. She was so naive when she moved to NYC but she learned a lot about herself. The website actually got her int'l attention and the NYT, WSJ, Today show all interviewed on the site!
