This book was slow to start for me. I just think I wasn't in the right mood for it but it got better as it progressed. It made me laugh, and it made it cry!

emotional hopeful reflective medium-paced

4.5

A really lovely book in portraying your 20s, it felt reassuring to me to hear someone else talk about the importance of friendships instead of other relationships. I did find the narrative a little difficult to follow timeline wise sometimes but that is probably more due to me listening to it instead of reading it. I loved the portrayal of platonic love and did sometimes wish there was less about romantic relationships and more about friendships but that's quite subjective.
Would definitely recommend reading this book.

This book really shows you the events of growing up and issues you encounter on the journey. I like that some of the chapters weren't really actual chapters, it added personality into the book.

Some parts of the book were great, but it also lost me a couple of times.

I loved this book and loved the emphasis on female friendships and how they are truly so important. Definitely a good book for every girl in their 20s to read.
