Synopsis
If you’re in your twenties, you’re likely feeling the combination of the excitement of this defining decade and the pressure to figure out your entire life. The thrill of newfound independence and opportunity can be quickly squelched by worry, disillusionment, or disappointment. Like thousands of other twenty somethings, you may have experienced what life coach and quarter-life expert Christine Hassler calls an “Expectation Hangover.” This manifesto explores the all-important questions and life choices of these turbulent yet exciting years.
Twenty somethings may commiserate about the challenges they face, but few resources offer practical lessons or suggestions. In these pages, quarter-life men and women tell their stories, sharing their successes and failures, along with their frustrations and realizations. The author’s insightful commentary and “take away” suggestions provide the tools and skills you need to create change and direction in your life. You’ll recognize and articulate your personal goals, paving the way to what you truly want.

Life coach, speaker, and author Hassler (20 Something, 20 Everything: A Quarter-Life Woman's Guide to Balance and Direction) has written this guidebook to help twentysomethings and their parents know they're not alone. She covers such territory as "expectation hangoversaao" (i.e., when life does not turn out as expected) as well as features personal stories by various twentysomething contributors, grouping the entries into common problem areas and including expert advice and insights for dealing with these issues. Important information in an easy-to-digest format that targets an underserved (in the library world) population; highly recommended for public and academic libraries.
