"THE AMERICAN MOTORCYCLIST ASSOCIATION ONCE CLAIMED THAT 99% OF ITS MEMBERS WERE REGULAR CITIZENS AND ONLY 1% OF ITS MEMBERS WERE THE OUTLAWS...I IDENTIFIED WITH THEIR ETHOS THAT WHEN YOU ARE A ONE-PERCENTER, YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE YOUR WAY." This is the back story to one of her tattoos but it also represents Sophia Amoruso's life motto that inspired her to work hard and accomplish big things.

"AS A TEENAGER AND INTO MY EARLY TWENTIES, I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD NEVER EMBRACE CAPITALISM, MUCH LESS BE A PUBLIC CHAMPION FOR IT. "

This quote is one of many that exemplifies Sophia Amoruso's larger-than-life ego.

"MONEY LOOKS BETTER IN THE BANK THAN ON YOUR FEET."

This quote was from the part of the book where Sophia Amoruso talked about how she built a company up without borrowing a single cent and her thought process which inspired her to save her money.

Likes:

The story line was interesting

Easy language, easy to understand

Business aspect that I found relatable

Motivating success story where she did not come from a wealthy background

Not afraid to get personal while remaining somewhat professional

focused more on being an entrepreneur than being a girl

Dislikes:

She writes in a self-righteous perspective

Never accepting the blame of her actions, rather she blamed society

Not very informative how-to information for business owners, more about her personal life

It appears that she made no mistakes in the process of starting a business from scratch (highly unlikely)

Beginning of the book was better than the end
