Albertina Rizzo and Amanda McCall are two funny females. That being said, don't pick this up expecting to laugh the entire time. That's not possible and it won't happen. But you will laugh out loud if you're anything like me.
Some parts were far better than others - I loved the thank-you's in the back - hilarious! Rizzo and McCall set this up like an educational book that you'll remember from high school. In the beginning you read what you're "learning" and then you have a quiz.
I'm extremely curious to find out what some of the rappers mentioned this of this - like Snoop and Trick Daddy, etc. I wouldn't be surprised to see something come from these girls and a rapper/rappers in the future. This could very well open doors for them - who knows - they might just turn into video-hoes next!
I would never have paid $12.00 for this, which is the list price, but being that I got it for less than $2.00 I'm happy with it. It's also very, very fast. Someone could read it all in one shot (like I did) or just pick it up once in awhile. The way it's broken up makes it easy for it to be read both ways.
