I recently picked up Go to college without going broke: 33 ways to save your time, money and sanity
Honestly, the whole thing reads like a massive brain fart. College books can be tough because colleges are different, but I felt like this advice was pretty blah. He advises taking AP Classes and using CLEP tests to get credit for courses for your degree at a lower rate. I felt that this advice was the best in the book, provided that your college accepts these credits.
However, some of his advice ranged from ill-advised to pompous. He admits that cheap food is unhealthy. He also has ways to get inexpensive textbooks (yay!), but then goes into concepts I find shady/would not want my niece to read. His advice on employment has a similar range: he suggests waitress over a retail job because of the tips, but also suggests modeling. He lists ways to get into normal modeling,, but also recommends nude modeling. I have heard of people who do this, and it is much harder work than he glibly makes it out to be.
