This book was alright, but it's not for everyone, and I'll explain why I think so.

I like how the book addresses many common concerns and thoughts shared by individuals in their twenties (I'm in my mid twenties myself), and it's nice to know other people feel lost just like I do at times. The book is certainly aimed at people it the age group of twenty-somethings and is relatable in many aspects. A lot of individuals in their twenties are seeking jobs, starting or graduating college, moving around, failing and succeeding in many aspects, and just learning to 'adult'. This book is almost like a conversation with a motivational friend, someone who is going through this phase with you, and trying to remind you that it's important not to give up if your dreams come crashing down, and that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. This is the time for you to fail, fail, and fail before finally finding success and personal fulfillment.

There are some qualms I have with the reading however. Such as some assumptions the author makes about the readers, the lack of examples from very many sources but the author's experience, and some topics that weren't covered. For one, only a single group of twenty year olds is heavily focused on. Specifically those people who are actively attending college/graduated, career seeking, and unmarried or single. Very few, if any of the chapters, cover the topic of twenty-somethings with children or families. Being 26 and with a family of my own, I confess I found the book was personally less relatable at times, as if I didn't fit into what a twenty-something should look like. I also found myself disagreeing with several opinions the author shared, which I think would've been more approachable if in their stead some sound science or examples through statistics and research had been shared. After all, although this is the psychology of the 20's, every twenty-something is going to be somewhat different.

I understand though, that this was the author's first book, and I can see they pooled a lot of effort and research into this work. For the demographic I feel this is pitched towards, I think it could be helpful and insightful, but it would certainly benefit from more real world examples from various sources, and studies on every type of twenty-something demographic. I imagine as the author grows and develops, her future publications will be ones to look forward to.
