I’m glad that i read this and took note. I thought it offered interesting perspectives to sit with, and I would like to read this again later in my twenties. I would also like to read it again paying attention to the notes section. She writes about common biased that affect decision making

DID NOT FINISH: 8%
I started reading and already felt like I was given harsh lessons after a few pages, as if our twenties all have to be the same, towards a heteronormative capitalist vision of life. Some lessons might be very valuable, but need an effort to interpret them the best of ways, and sort them according to your own situation. 
I stopped reading it because I did not feel brave enough to take a step back every sentence, and would have ended up feeling judged and quite miserable. Maybe I can come back to it when I feel super confident and without any anxiety.
