Perfect for young adults
I found this book to be a valuable and easy-to-follow guide. It covers important topics like managing money, handling emotions, preparing for a career, etc. The advice was also practical and realistic. I liked how the book didn't just give generic tips but provides clear strategies young adults can actually use. It’s a great listen for anyone looking to gain independence and improve essential life skills. I would highly recommend it to teenagers, college students, and even young professionals looking for guidance.

A Must-Read for Young Adults
This book is exactly what I wish I had when I first started navigating adulthood. It covers everything—finances, career prep, emotional intelligence—without feeling overwhelming. The advice is practical, easy to follow, and actually useful in real life. I especially appreciated the budgeting and credit-building tips, which were broken down in a way that made sense. If you're feeling lost about “adulting” or want to set yourself up for success, this is a great place to start!

Perfect Book for Me as I Exit College
This book is basically a crash course in everything I wish I had learned, but they didn't teach me up until this point in my life. I loved the sections on regular adult things, such as doing taxes, as I definitely needed advice on these things. However, I was also surprised to see that there was an entire section on maintaining and building solid friendships and relationships as well as an entire section on diet and exercise. I really didn't consider these things in my life plan as I was so worried about budgeting my money, but due to this book, my eyes were opened to the importance of also budgeting my time. Overall, I loved this book, and I would recommend it to anyone under the age of 24 or those older who feel they need some guidance in their lives.

Are you in your early 20’s and trying to “adult” but aren’t doing so hot at it? This is your book! So glad that I grabbed it when I did. Highly recommend!

Your Guide to Adulting with Confidence
This book is exactly what I needed! As a young adult just starting to figure things out, the advice on budgeting, building credit, and job hunting was clear and actionable. The 5-step budgeting plan alone was a game-changer for me, and I now feel way more in control of my finances. The resume tips and job-search strategies were also incredibly helpful—I've already updated mine and feel more confident applying for jobs. If you're feeling overwhelmed about adulthood, this book is a must-read!

This book is great from start to finish
I was so impressed with this book. It covered all the bases with how to be financially responsible, how to do a budget, and explaining in simple terms the different types of accounts to have. I thought that was all good, but then the book moved into job readiness, resume writing, and responsibility. It then moved into emotional intelligence and communication, which is so important for this age group. It has all that young adults need to move into adulthood.
