20 Something Manifesto: Quarter-Lifers Speak Out About Who They Are, What They Want, and How to Get It

This book was awesome! It gave me a million "aha moments" Christine gives loads of advice and although she doesn't solve your problems she gives you tools to get and take control of your life and create the life you want for yourself one goal at a time...not one expectation at a time! ha! But, I highly recommend this book. Get it if you are a 20 something or as a gift for a 20 something you know...they will be grateful. It is also nice this book comes with other people's quotes and stories which allows you to feel like you are not the only one going through the "roaring and ravishing twenties" in your life! College really doesn't teach the things in this book, therefore it is great companion to have in addition to your degree/educational background this gives you real world advice and stories to draw from. Enjoy!

Loved the structure of this book: a wide variety of anecdotes from 20 somethings about all aspects of life combined with excellent commentary from the author. I highly recommend it for anyone experiencing the ups and downs of life in their 20s as well as people approaching their 20s. There were so many struggles and feelings that I were experiencing that I believed were unique to me but after reading this book I discovered I was not only the one. It was highly refreshing to hear and understand other's experience with career, relationship, family and money issues.

Wow, when I was going through my "quarter life crisis" I looked on amazon for books women in their twenties should read and I stumbled across this book. I really enjoyed it and I found Christine Hassler to be a great author. I've purchased her other books as well and they all helped me through that tough time when you're about to turn 25 and you realize you have no idea what you're doing with your life and your life hasn't turned out at all like you had hoped. Highly recommend this and her other books!

for my son. I read some of it and purchased it for him; he had recently graduated from college and was going through a bit of a funk trying to figure out what to do with himself. This can be a very scary time, and I think a book like this can edify and relieve to know that you are not the only one caught in this indecision after college. So, if you have a child in that type of stage, I think this book could be an inspirational tool.

I really enjoyed most of this book, but I thought it was a little long (and boring) in some areas. On one hand, I enjoyed the stories from others, which made me feel like someone else knew what I was feeling. On the other hand, I thought there were too many stories in the book. I skimmed over and skipped a few sections in the back of the book that did not pertain to me. It wasn't a bad book; I just wish there had been a little more substance.

Bought this book for a 21-year woman that I mentor from time to time. Offers some very interesting topics to reflect on, and certainly offers some nice insights. It was interesting enough that I read some of the book before wrapping it . . . I learned some things too!! Very well oriented towards the 20-year old of today.

Marvelous guide for individuals and as a group manual. I am using it as a "text" for the bewildering and changing demands of our current bewildering demands of a new reality and those who are trying to survive and thrive in it. Liz Campbell

Love the interviews, manifestos and real life examples from other 20 something's. This book flows long quite easily and I guarantee you will find plenty to take away!

I read this book following a break up in my mid twenties and found it so helpful, packed with practical and emotional advice. I would highly recommend to any 20 somethings (or older to be honest, all of the principles apply throughout life) who are feeling a little lost or reflecting on aspects of their life.
