Book Reviews of The Naked Roommate: And 107 Other Issues You Might Run Into in College, 2nd Edition

Book Review: The Naked Truth about College!
Summary: 5 Stars

I should start off by stating that I started giving this title to the college-bound children of my clients. Cohen has a novel but powerful way of explaining all the nuances of freshman life in college.

Without getting too much into it, the book makes for an excellent gift and provides both need- and want-to-know facts about college life. Yes - there are moments at which you say to yourself, "Duh." Keep in mind, Harlan is not writing to you only. The book is made for everyone.

With that in mind, pick up a copy, smile, RELAX, and enjoy The Naked Roommate by Harlan Cohen.
