Meg Jay

Great book. Structure really well, each chapter has a real story with real character whom Dr.Jay had helped. Being in my twenties, i think this book has clarified a lot of things for me in my life.
If you are in your twenties or early thirties, this book is a must read.

2.5 stars. some good tidbits here and there, but very obvious that the target audience are upper/upper-middle class, straight, neurotypical, white people that want a nuclear family. her research was done between 2011-12 which is already out of touch with the current state of the world, post-pandemic, gen-z, etc. and is highly apparent when reading the anecdotes.

Lots of cases. You can relate to some, and you can see how you or someone you know might end up going down one of these roads. Lots of helpful tips. I, for one, am gonna have a few things to think about.

The book had lots of meaningful ideas about how a twenty something person can live there life now to set themselves up for the future.

Felt as though the author kept expanding upon obvious arguments. I was not able to relate to some of the content which made the book feel repetitive.
