Bankruptcy Didn’t Break Me by Kassondra R. Lewis

Author Kassondra R. Lewis delivers a compassionate and expert guide for anyone facing the emotional and financial chaos of bankruptcy or foreclosure in Bankruptcy Didn’t Break Me. As both a mortgage underwriter and someone who personally faced the dark days of the mortgage crisis more than a decade ago, she is a font of relevant experience and genuine desire to help others.

For those facing bankruptcy or fighting to pull themselves back from the brink of financial ruin, this is an encouraging and uplifting roadmap for future stability. Unlike many other financial self-help books, Lewis strikes a good balance between anecdotal stories and specific strategies that can be readily applied to help improve one’s credit score.

Lewis writes with conviction and confidence, while maintaining a relatable voice – both friendly and professional, bringing her engaging personality to the fore. Some of the sections in this 60-page book do feel rushed, and the structure is occasionally jarring, akin to a Powerpoint presentation re-formatted for a hard-copy text.

However, the language is well-edited and concise, with few wasted words or filler, and the information will be immediately useful for those who need it. Lewis tackles the delicate subject of bankruptcy with a clear head and obvious expertise, making this guide a brief but indispensable read.
