Three cheers,
I loved the book. I was living in Washington, DC, at the time of the economic collapse, and I remember reading the Post and listening to NPR in an effort to learn more about and better understand the financial crisis. It was a great pleasure to read You, Me & the US Economy, and I think Stacy's account is compelling; I really enjoyed the moments of levity she sprinkled throughout. It's a valuable document of a wild ride.

|Like a talk with your girlfriend,
I can't believe how much I learned from a book that was so enjoyable to read! Carlson's voice makes this book feel like a talk with one of your girlfriends. She's funny and smart and teaches us without ever talking down to us (the reader). This is a must-read for anyone who would like to understand more about the economy but doesn't want to feel like a dummy doing it. Three cheers for the arrival of this wonderful, unique writer, her terrific voice and a smashing first book. Can't wait to see what she does next.
