" Interesting. I didn't always agree with her, but I don't plan to start my own business, so it doesn't matter. "
— Shelly, 2/7/2011" Very helpful and informative. Might have been better if I already had my BIG IDEA. "
— Lynn, 1/24/2011" A quick read with some cute anecdotes, but not as insightful as I had hoped. However, it did make me admire Martha for all that she has accomplished in spite of the adversity she's faced. "
— Laura, 1/10/2011" Quick read and somewhat helpful. It was too autobiographical at times and I felt like I could have gotten more depth from another book. "
