THANK GOD!!

I'm not the only one!!! :-) I happened upon this book on the New in Paperback table in my local chain bookstore, and thank goodness I did!! I'm a 23 yr old, College educated young woman, smack in the middle of what author Katy McColl refers to as the 1/4 life crisis. Just when I was getting lathargic with indecision, I'm now, at only page 33, incredibly relieved that I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE, and things will get better soon! :-) If you're frustrated with where you are, and not sure where to go, how to get there, etc. you need this book. With just enough witty humor to calm you after the panic attack induced by potential life-altering career choices; and a healthy dose of realistic, creative solutions and brainstorming techniques, Katy's a great pep-talker. I now believe it's completely in my power to have a fulfilling, enjoyable, creative job, and NOT be answering someone else's phone for the next 47 years. And I might even have a CLUE what I want to DO for the next 2 or 3! :-) Thanks!
Witty and wise look at being a '20 something

This book really helped me put the struggles I was facing at work in perspective. McColl is very funny amd entertaining as a writer (I think she is the best writer at Jane!). She interviews a very diverse group of people, and gives insight into many professions and "life routes." Life since graduating college has been harder than I expected. If you had an older, wiser, funny friend who worked in twenty or more jobs over the years but was still down to earth and young enough to give you advice you could use, you wouldn't need a book like this. But for anyone questioning their career path who hasn't found that "perfect" mentor (if one even exists)---read the book, and laugh along knowing you are not the only one out there going through this.
