Having just officially entered the “adult” world it is always good to know I am not alone. This book was humorous, heartfelt and so incredibly relatable. Helbig covers topics that anyone in their 20s can definitely find a connection to and her writing has the conversational style of someone who you have been friends with forever.

While reading through this “self-help” book, there were so many sections and passages that I instantly wanted to call and talk to my best friend about although while reading it I felt like I was talking to a friend. I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at sections and flagged and noted so many things that I really enjoyed or wanted to share.

If you have ever watched Grace’s youtube channel you will enjoy this book. It is layered with anecdotes from her life and contains the light and funny humor that you come to expect from her channel! I can see myself buying this for my friends who are in the same situation as me, just ending college and entering the adult world. Although most of the book is silly and hilarious, there is loads of practical information and some tips and advice I found to be useful!
