Summary: How to Survive when you leave home
Review: For Christmas last year I purchased this book for my daughter who had just graduated from College. Living 200 miles away, we were not able to help her with things like fixing a flat tire or finding the fuse box and what to do when you find it. I would include a box of tools along with this book for a complete gift. Also the companion book, Where's Mom Now That I Need Her? is also an excellent book. I gave them both to my son in college.

Summary: good book, but...
Review: FYI - 145 pages of this book are dedicated to recipes. And in a book that's only 311 pages, 145 pages is nearly half the content. If you can't cook, the recipes are practical, easy to make, tasty dishes. If you can cook (that's me), the rest of the book will still provide you with an interesting and concise (sometimes too much so) read covering banking, security, home repairs, loans, contracts, buying a car, and travel tips.

Summary: Paired Up With...
Review: This book picks up where, "On Your Own For The First Time" leaves off. These two books paired together and your child is set! On Your Own gives advice for resume writing, insurance, credit, room-mates, interviewing, shopping for cars, leases, legal matters, personal investing, etc. These two books together make the perfect graduation gift or even for the newlyweds....
