  Great little book about living on one small income. Good tips and insights into life living simply so that you can enjoy it. I will be reading more of Kate Singh's books.

  This was more like a short memoir than anything usefulon how to live on a small income. Though entertaining, the author just tells us more about her personal story and how she got from not having money to having some money to getting a house. Will you learn anything from this? Not really, but it is interesting to see how her family lives on so little. But there's no tips on how to live frugally besides the basic "save more and have a garden and do everything at home," and even these points are glazed over a bit, so if that was what you were looking for, this isn't for you.

  Love this book!
  
  There are a million "frugal homemaking" books out there, and they all pretty much says the same thing. But this is more an autobiography than a list of tips and practices, very much like the Frugal Gazette of Amy Dasyzyn (sorry for the spelling). Hearing about Kate's journey makes you realize that no matter where you start in life, your frugal goals are attainable. Thanks Kate!

  Perseverance is powerful
  
  Honest and forthright with her advice, Kate Singh does a wonderful job of showing us a lifestyle that we should all be living and basking in because of its simplicity and consideration of the world we livevin. Debt free living is becoming increasingly more common and doable. I've been working my way through all of Kate's books and enjoying getting to know her while getting to know more about myself as I dig myself out of debt.

  Good personal story.
  
  You really learn a lot about the author, her family and her background, and she covers many experiences here. But it all seems a bit rushed and I did not always feel that I was learning how to live frugally, only how she got from one tough situation to the next.

  Big living on little
  
  This book took me a few days to read. It is a realistic look at one persons life journey and how she manages to make it work overcoming obstacles and truly enjoying what life has to offer her one day at a time.

  Well put together. No nonsense.
  
  I enjoyed Kate's down to earth, no nonsense style. Felt like we were just chatting in her livingroom. I will definitely read her other books and some of those she recommended.

  Not your typical penny saving book. It's actually a true live experiences of our ups and downs. Very interesting. Lots of ideas shared in story format
