"I absolutely love Kick Ass in College. I have read the book twice before, and now for the third time. I re-read it before each semester, and I have been kicking ass ever since. I had to leave school with a 1.5 G.P.A. but when I came back my grades jumped to a 3.4. I graduated with a 3.8! The book is wonderful and I recommend it to every college student I know!" ~K. Williams, Bowie State University | 5.0 out of 5 stars
