How to Be a Grown-Up by Daisy Buchanan

5.0

If you’ve got a 20-30s female in your life and they need a hug but you’re far away, then sending this book is the next best thing. Or indeed if you’re 20-30 and need a hug sometimes, then read this book. It’s a manual for life that covers everything from self care and confidence, through to money, jealousy and mental health. The book reads like a series of well-written essays, each chapter is a different topic. Buchanan’s writing style is enjoyable to read and contains wise advice dotted with cultural references and humour. Chapter 2 on Friendship is possibly the most beautiful book chapter I’ve ever read. Would recommend, especially for fans of Dolly Alderton's Everything I Know About Love.

Thanks to NetGalley and Urano Publishing for an Advanced Read Copy in exchange for an honest review.
