Emily's Review: The College Woman's Handbook by Rachel Dobkin and Shana Sippy

This is a generously-sized book for the young woman going away to college. I'm in my freshman year and I'm planning to transfer; this book has helped me with applications, with homework, and with staying healthy. Authors Dobkin and Sippy wrote it while at Barnard, so the parental, dry tone found in most advisory books is absent, here.
The guide presents information on all a manner of topics and lists every option and alternative available to a young woman away from home. If you're in high school, read it and know what to expect. If you're a parent, give it to your daughter.
Empowering, comforting, and smart.
Rating: 5Q, 5P
