“I now have a girl crush on Babe Walker! Laugh-out-loud, pee-in-your-Cosabellas funny.” —Tori Spelling, author of Uncharted TerriTori
“White Girl Problems makes me laugh a lot, and cry a little. It’s about time someone drew our attention to the devastating reality: White girl problems are all around us . . . absolutely hysterical.” —Susan Sarandon
“Babe Walker will be your new best friend and worst enemy. I loved it!” —Emma Roberts
Babe Walker, center of the universe, is a painstakingly manicured white girl with an expensive smoothie habit, a proclivity for Louboutins, a mysterious mother she's never met, and approximately 50 bajillion Twitter followers. But her "problems" have landed her in shopping rehab—that's what happens when you spend $246,893.50 in one afternoon at Barneys. Now she's decided to write her memoir, revealing the gut-wrenching hurdles she's had to overcome in order to be perfect in every way, every day. Hurdles such as:
- I hate my horse.
- Every job I've ever had is the worst job I've ever had.
- He's not a doctor, a lawyer, or a prince.
- I’ll eat anything, as long as it’s gluten-free, dairy-free, low-carb, low-fat, low-calorie, sugar-free, and organic.
In an Adderall-induced flash of inspiration, Babe Walker has managed to create one of the most enjoyable, unforgettable memoirs in years.
“The epitome of the urban socialite you love to hate.” —Time magazine
“A social satire in the guise of a memoir�The most artful elements are the charming fashion illustrations peppered throughout�Walker’s half-million followers on Twitter and the public’s bottomless appetite for news about real-life socialites like the Kardashians prove that a large audience for this story does exist.”

This book was an easy read (2 days), but it was not what i expected.... I saw the other reviews of "hilarious" and "must read" and didnt go much farther than that. While there were some parts that made me laugh, I ended up feeling sorry for the girl. And then at the end, I was disappointed that I contributed $8 and change to this girl who hasn't got a clue and will go on in life thinking she is successful, while she should feel embarrassed. Needless to say.... this wasn't what i expected. I thought it'd be more along the lines of Jenna Marbles, but it is not.

I've been following White Girl Problems on twitter for quite some time now and loving each tweet. The book is just as entertaining as the tweets are, it sucked when I was done. The writing is great comedy, kind of like reading a Chelsea Handler book. The book made me want to be bff with and hate Babe Walker both at the same time. Very entertaining and I would highly reccommend.

So I grab this book for some light reading to pass the time as Im on the elliptical. As I got to about chapter 4 I thought to myself "Ive read this before"...but then thought again and realized I was reading a knockoff of "Clueless". The stories are a little different but basically same plot. Im surprised the writers of the movie didnt catch on to this book yet and sued the writer, its clearly the same story.

Like the author was just made a list everything she could think of that was shocking and tried to make a story around that. It was like rwading something when someone has used a thesaurus for a lot of words. It didn't flow. Bad.

So I was looking for some funny fluff reading, where I was guaranteed not to learn anything, nor to gain any life lessons. I just wanted uplifting filler after surgery. I read GCB (HIGHLY recommend for this genre) and was hungry for more. This is based on a fictional character who was created through a twitter account. The writing is atrocious, the stories are ridiculous and worst of all, I didn't care about the main character. I got to chapter 3 and regretted my purchase. All I ask is that I love or hate the main character, but I just wanted her to go away.

Not funny, unless one has a strange sense if humor. This book is not worth buying! Poorly written too.

All I really can say about this book was that within the first few pages I was laughing so hard I started to cry. I thought that was going to be a one time experience but it continued throughout the whole book even at the dismay of my family when I was laughing a little too loud and too much. Highly recommended if you want a good book to brighten your day.
