Can’t believe I never reviewed this book.
5/5 stars. Reread it recently and wanted to reflect on my original review to find out I never reviewed if

Wasn't feeling the self help vibe of this book, maybe it wasn't the right time but it didn't feel like it really lined up with being a student currently.

Recommended to me by my 22 yo daughter who felt the book had applicable life lessons for all ages. I appreciated the research/data interspersed. The biggest decision you will make in your life is who you marry. Lots of great advice about work/career choices, love, and body/brain. The author is a therapist so much of the book includes antidotes with her clients
This is the third time I’ve read this (as a non-rereader this is a big deal). It is such an impactful and straightforward text about how to make the most of a very liberating/ terrifying time in our lives. I recommend this to everyone in their 20’s and wish I had read it sooner.

This book is kind of like a punch to the face, but in a good way. Perhaps an obvious punch to the face was something I needed spiraling as an early twenty-or-something myself. I don't know if it was because of the book and it's teachings directly, but a lot of things have been looking up in my life recently. Things get better. You just need to push for them.
