Download or read book Adulting 101 written by Lisa Henry and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggle is real. Nick Stahlnecker is eighteen and not ready to grow up yet. He has a summer job, a case of existential panic, and a hopeless crush on the unattainable Jai Hazenbrook. Except how do you know that your coworker's unattainable unless you ask to blow him in the porta-potty? That's probably not what Dad meant when he said Nick should act more like an adult. Twenty-five-year-old Jai is back in his hometown of Franklin, Ohio, just long enough to earn the money to get the hell out again. His long-term goal of seeing more of the world is worth the short-term pain of living in his mother's basement, but only barely. Meeting Nick doesn't fit in with Jai's plans at all, but, as Jai soon learns, you don't have to travel halfway around the world to have the adventure of a lifetime. This is not a summer romance. This is a summer friendship-with-benefits. It's got pizza with disgusting toppings, Netflix and chill, and accidental exhibitionism. That's all. There are no feelings here. None. Shut up.

FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Download or read book Your Turn written by Julie Lythcott-Haims and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Julie Lythcott-Haims is back with a groundbreakingly frank guide to being a grown-up What does it mean to be an adult? In the twentieth century, psychologists came up with five markers of adulthood: finish your education, get a job, leave home, marry, and have children. Since then, every generation has been held to those same markers. Yet so much has changed about the world and living in it since that sequence was formulated. All of those markers are choices, and they’re all valid, but any one person’s choices along those lines do not make them more or less an adult. A former Stanford dean of freshmen and undergraduate advising and author of the perennial bestseller How to Raise an Adult and of the lauded memoir Real American, Julie Lythcott-Haims has encountered hundreds of twentysomethings (and thirtysomethings, too), who, faced with those markers, feel they’re just playing the part of “adult,” while struggling with anxiety, stress, and general unease. In Your Turn, Julie offers compassion, personal experience, and practical strategies for living a more authentic adulthood, as well as inspiration through interviews with dozens of voices from the rich diversity of the human population who have successfully launched their adult lives. Being an adult, it turns out, is not about any particular checklist; it is, instead, a process, one you can get progressively better at over time—becoming more comfortable with uncertainty and gaining the knowhow to keep going. Once you begin to practice it, being an adult becomes the most complicated yet also the most abundantly rewarding and natural thing. And Julie Lythcott-Haims is here to help readers take their turn.

Download or read book Adulting for Beginners written by Ann Grate and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-08-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we were kids, we couldn't wait to be adults. Now we are adults, we just want to be kids again! But unfortunately, we cannot literally physically age backwards. According to a study, participants' well-being rises starting in their early 20s and peaks in their early and mid-30s. The trend then gradually reverses after that. So what is it exactly about adulting that turns people into a caricature of their former selves? These stories have been submitted anonymously and identities have been changed. Enjoy! Someone said, "Adulting is like looking both ways before you cross the street and then getting hit by an airplane". "The page of girlhood had been turned, as by an unseen finger, and the page of womanhood was before her with all its charm and mystery, its pain and gladness." ― L.M Montogmery

Book excerpt: INCLUDE BONUS NOVELLA FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY From K.A. Berg and T.E. Black comes a story of the forbidden desire—a story so delicious you'll need more than One Taste. One Taste Sebastian – I live a good life. I'm successful, the CEO of the advertising firm my father built from the ground up. I've been deemed a god in the sheets by the female population of New York City and have the equipment to match. Life is great. Until my social life messes with my professional life. I've become a frequent flyer on the gossip pages—a detriment to business. Just as my perfect life is starting to crash down around me, I meet her. All I wanted was a taste, but I got much more than I bargained for. Devin – Seven years is a long time, but it’s good to be home. I’ve missed this place and the people in it. I’m living with my best friend, I landed a great job as an Interim CEO which will look great on my resume, and I hooked up with a hot guy I met at a bar. Life couldn’t get much better. That is until I report to my first day at my new job and standing behind the desk waiting for me is the man I spent a sex-crazed night with. He devours me with his eyes letting me know things between us aren’t over. Except, he doesn’t get to make that decision; I do. But, I no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to stop this disaster from happening. One Regret Sebastian – Who would have thought the woman who consumed me after only one night would wind being the new Interim CEO of my company? It was my sister’s doing, but it doesn’t change that she’s here, right in front of me. She wants nothing to do with me, and I want nothing more than to claim her, make her mine. All I want is to worship her like the queen she is, but she’s more interested in fighting the attraction between us. Too bad for her I can play this game better than her, and I play to win. Devin – Life just got a lot more complicated and one night of fun has turned into regret real quick. Sebastian Brooks stole a small piece of me our night at the hotel, and I haven’t been able to take it back as hard as I’ve tried. I want to be with him, but I’m not sure if what I stand to gain is more than what I stand to lose. What will happen if I choose him over everything I’ve worked for? He’ll still own a company, but I, however, could be committing career suicide. I want him so badly. I want us and the way we fit together seamlessly, but there are many reasons why we shouldn’t do this. The doubts linger in the back of mind, and when unforeseen circumstances crash into us, it leaves me questioning everything, yet he keeps me coming back. One Love Sebastian – Devin warned me what would happen if we kept sneaking around together, but I was sure I could control it. I was being selfish when it came to her. I wanted her and that was it. My mind was set and I was on the path to winning her heart, until everything blew up in our faces. I caused pain to the one woman I promised to protect, and now I have to figure out how to make it all right. There’s nothing worse than seeing the look of fear on her face as the seriousness of our reality falls down on her instead of me. One thing no one counted on, though, was just far I’d go to save her. I’d walk through fire to keep Devin from living out her worst nightmare. Devin – I’ve never felt so many emotions for one person before in my life. Love. Anger. Sadness. Jealousy. It’s all there. It’s a constant up and down when it comes to Sebastian and me. He’s confident he can fix it all, while I’m still trying to get over my own fears. Except those fear become reality in the most terrifying way. We’ve been through things most people only read about. All we want to do is love each other, but someone else has other, more gruesome, plans for us
