Your So-Called Life: A Guide to Boys, Body Issues, and Other Big-Girl Drama You Thought You Would Have Figured Out by Now
Description
From Andrea Lavinthal and Jessica Rozler, the acclaimed authors of The Hookup Handbook and Friend of Frenemy?, comes Your So-Called Life—a must-have, hilarious, and absolutely unique bible for any woman in her late 20s and 30s who’s making the big move into real adulthood. With invaluable ideas and advice from a host of experts—from former Top Chef host and celebrity chef Katie Lee to dating expert Rachel Greenwald to Bank of Mom and Dad host Farnoosh Torabi—Your So-Called Life is ideal for every young woman at a crossroads, looking for a career, a soulmate, a home.
|Now that you're approaching 30—or just getting over the trauma of the big 3-0—reality has set in. You're about to be an adult, minus the air quotes. But you don't have to do it alone.
Andrea Lavinthal and Jessica Rozler will help you enter true adulthood looking and feeling good in the only way they know how: with tons of wit and wisdom. Featuring interviews with nearly thirty experts—including doctors, career counselors, and financial planners—this handy, helpful book guides women through their second bout of growing pains and offers advice on:
- how to manage a difficult boss.
- how to deal with your ticking biological clock (if such a thing even exists).
- how to throw the perfect party in your tiny new apartment without breaking the bank.
- how to enjoy a Friday night as a seventh wheel with your married friends and their husbands.
Your So-Called Life is the bible for all “post-quarter-life crisis” women who need guidance transitioning into the real world with smarts and savvy.
|“Cheeky, frank, and way more fun than therapy.” - Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan, authors of THE FUG AWARDS and founders of the site www.gofugyourself.com on Friend or Frenemy?
“Lavinthal and Rozler’s knowing allusions will have readers squealing in delighted recognition.” - Publishers Weekly
“Racy, fun, and informative are three of the many positive adjectives that could be applied to this manual on ‘nondating.’ While this book will appeal to women of all ages, it will definitely be a hit with that hard-to-get-in-the-library twentysomething crowd.” - Library Journal
