Almost 30 by Lindsey Simcik and Krista Williams is such a relatable, refreshing read! The book feels like a conversation with two best friends who are navigating the ups and downs of life, career, and relationships as they approach their 30s. I loved how candid and honest they are about their own experiences, offering a mix of humor, vulnerability, and real-life advice. It's like a guide to embracing change, self-growth, and the challenges of adulting in a way that feels comforting and empowering. I think our library patrons will really enjoy it—especially anyone in that "almost 30" phase or anyone just looking for a book that feels like a supportive, upbeat chat with friends.

📖✨ Almost 30 by Lindsey Simcik and Krista Williams

I'm a huge fan of the podcast Almost 30, and I think this book will be so amazing for not only listeners of the show, but anyone who feels like their late twenties is one big "WTF is happening?" moment, Almost 30 is about to become your new best friend. 🫶💕 Written by the brilliant minds behind the Almost 30 podcast, Lindsey and Krista are here to hold your hand through every “almost-adult” crisis and cosmic shakeup you’re going through, including that dreaded Saturn Return (yes, it’s a thing, and yes, they explain it all). 🌌

This book is like sitting down with your wisest, funniest big sisters who totally get it. Through candid stories, wellness tips, and guidance from major guest experts like Jay Shetty and Glennon Doyle, you’ll get the tools to not only survive but thrive through the chaos. ✨ Think journaling prompts, meditations, and thought-provoking questions that make you dig deep and get real about where you’re going. I love that each chapter reveals a new life lesson that we should definitely know by the time we enter our 30s. We might feel like we don't know what we are doing and don't know where to go next, but we can find ourselves with this guide.

If you’re feeling lost, restless, or just in need of a loving nudge toward the life you really want, Almost 30 will give you all the laughs, insights, and motivation to make your thirties your best decade yet. 🥂

Thank you to NetGalley, Lindsey Simcik & Krista Williams, and St. Martin's Press for the eARC of this book.

This book came into my life when I needed it most. I have followed and been a loyal listener of Almost 30 for at least 6 years. This book opened my eyes to things I didn't realize but just needed a little push. This book is gentle and soft but also a kick in the ass when you start to do the work.
