This book has been recommended to me for YEARS by close friends and professional connections alike. I went into this book knowing that the references may be outdated (as it was written for millennials) and that I felt confident and happy in my life at 24. After finishing…. I don’t know what I gained and I didn’t write a lot of quotes down. 

I might re read this as I get older to see if I get more out of it. I would be interested in an updated edition targeted towards Gen Z / Zillennials.

I listened to the audiobook read by the author, which I enjoyed.

A few nuggets of information in the introduction, but overall could be condensed to a short article or blog post.
