F*ck! Everyone has that moment—the realization that adulthood has arrived, like a runaway train, and there's no getting out of its way. In attempt to express the contradictions and anxieties that come with being over-educated, minimally employed, mostly single, and on your own, Emma Koenig turned to the blogosphere. In this collection of her most popular posts from her blog of the same name (along with over 50% new material) Emma harnesses the power of illustrations, graphs, checklists, and flowcharts to explore this twenty-something life.

I was really eager to start this book, and was happy with the first few pages of it. She seems to be a funny and smart writer. If only she had written a book...
This is more of a notebook full of doodles than a real book. It takes all of 500 seconds to finish it, which is supremely disappointing considering the $5.99 price tag. It was funny and worth a laugh, just do yourself a favor and go read it in a bookstore instead of shelling out cash for it.

This was a very enjoyable read - very funny and very true comments about what life is like after college. I am 24 years old with a Master's Degree, minimally employed, and single. Needless to say, I am very much in a quarter-life crisis and this hilarious book offered comfort and gives people in their 20's a chance to laugh at their situation and take comfort that they are not alone.
The book picks up a lot from the blog, but is also loaded with new material and new, witty comments about a typical 20-something year old's love life, career life, and social life is like.
Definitely worth picking up, regardless if you are a successful 20-something year old or you are like me and just hoping there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I very much enjoyed this book, but just beware that it's not actually a story or anecdotes or anything written- it's all illustrations. I was wondering how the book was so inexpensive and now I know why. Maybe I just didn't read the description through but I started the book and just kept thinking, "Where are the words? Is the whole thing just pictures?" But once you get over the fact that you actually paid money for a bunch of drawings, it's very enjoyable. I found it extremely relatable and caught myself laughing out loud multiple times. It's very short but definitely worth reading if you are in fact in your twenties.

Awesome Gift
Bought it for my friend, a fellow sufferer of twenty something woes, and she absolutely loved it. It's not a novel or self help book and shouldn't be viewed as such. Read more
