But with her ingenious approach--taking the tactics used to land a man and applying them to your career-- you'll be able to handle any work situation and come out on top. Here, Nicole introduces twenty tried-and-true dating rules such as "Don't Give Away Your Milk for Free" and "Don't Waste the Pretty" and reveals how they can be applied just as effectively in the office. Other strategies include:
- Keep It Brief
- Don't Bash Your Ex
- Have Others Sing Your Praises
- Play Hard to Get
- Keep the Fire Alive
- Be Willing to Walk Away
Among other topics, Nicole dishes on how much to reveal at work as well as what to put up with from your boss (and, more importantly, what not to). She tackles everything from having the money talk to leaving them wanting more on the job interview. And sprinkled throughout GIRL ON TOP is fashion advice ("Ten Commandments of Style") and checklists to determine if you need to get a life.
Nicole's keen insight and candid advice will teach you how to recognize the good guys from the bad, win the kudos of those who matter, and create the career of your dreams.

My Opinion:
Whether you want to further your career, or have a better understanding of your relationship, this book is for you.
I didn't expect to enjoy this book as much as I did, but was pleasantly surprised when I found it useful and informative. I appreciated the authors' style of writing too. The format in which she wrote the book, was if if she was having a face-to-face conversation with you.
I think this was a great book, for the different topics it covers. And I don't necessarily think it's just for women. So go on, get a copy!

  1. From the cover this looks like a chick lit book. I wouldn't have thought that it was a career book. It sounds like a fun take on the topic though.

  2. Wow. "Don't Waste the Pretty" was totally stolen from He's Just Not That Into You by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
