This is one of those must-read novels for all early-20-something-year-olds! I loved following Flo and Renée’s misadventures as they tried to become "adults" despite feeling like they're still teenagers and wishing desperately that someone would just figure all of life out for them - #relateable. Despite the characters' flaws (and there are many!) it's impossible not to like them, and the author did an incredible job of not only keeping things realistic but also keeping the mundane everyday things interesting. No matter how many mistakes Flo and Renée made (especially Renée) I still loved them dearly because, in the end, we're all trying to figure out life, and it very very easy to relate to the two girls. This is definitely a book I'll be coming back to in the future, and one I'll be recommending to all other twenty-somethings too!
