Amy (USA: DC) (2007/11/26):
This book is mostly a rapidly-becoming-dated political screed about the author's feelings about the president, conservatives, and capitalism. She spends more time flogging the Bush administration than she does exploring her own assumptions about which aspects of her own lifestyle count as "necessary" and which are "luxuries" afforded to her by the privileged place she occupies in society. Even if you share her political views, the book doesn't have much to offer, because her musings aren't particularly interesting or well-written. All in all, this book was a disappointment.
