This book was confusing. There was no straight story. You would be reading in the first person and present day and then it jump within the same paragraph to the past.

What can I say? I’m going to miss reading about Chase and Olivia and all the wonderful people in their life. The only thing I didn’t like was when Zeke pushed Chase away. He should not have done that. I understand why he did it, but it hurt Chase very much. It was hard to Chase go through that. Other than that, no complaints about the book. What I loved most about it was the fact that the characters learned a lot from each other. They’ve changed and become better people. I love that. I wish to read more stories like this, where the main characters go through something that’s difficult and then they learn and they grow and then become better people because of it. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading fiction novels that are really a coming-of-age sort of story. I love stories like that! Well, Happy Reading!!

4.5 stars!!
I really enjoyed Adulting and felt like it was such a heartfelt story of friendship. Life Coach Olivia and her client Chase London form an unlikely friendship and I just love a book that explores this theme.
As Olivia learns more about her family, and Chase is able to process emotions from her past, it was an unexpected surprise how much I found myself rooted into the story. Bonus love interest with cutie next door neighbor Zeke, making this a compelling read I couldn’t put down!
TW: drug addiction, rape, child abuse, suicide
*many thanks to Montlake for the gifted copy. All opinions are my own

This took some twists that I was not expecting, and I enjoyed the redemption arcs.
