The Recessionistas

The Recessionistas - Alexandra Lebenthal I absolutely loved this book. I was immediately drawn in by both the characters and the story. Alexandra has a way of making you really understand the characters as if you truly knew them. I personally felt a special kinship to Sasha even though she and I come from two completely different worlds, I like how she thinks. I'm a political junky so I kept up with what was, and still is, going on with the financial crisis and recession. Along with many others in the country I learned of CDOs and derivatives but Alexandra makes it all make a little more sense. The Recessionitas is a really quick read as it's hard to put down. I highly recommend this book.
