Im looking for a book to answer life’s many questions. Lost both my parents and there is a large generational gap with grandparents. Just trying to find a book with the advice I am always looking for. How much to put on down payment? How to set up specialty doctor appointments? Is there such a thing or am I just silly for thinking this would exist?

I do not have a book suggestion, but you have described how I use Reddit and ChatGPT.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
There’s a book called 7 Habits of Effective Teens that’s an adolescent-focused version of a very popular seven habits of highly effective people, but that’s mostly about interpersonal skills rather than life’s practicalities.
I googled “how to coming-of-age book for teens” and found a bunch of hits. You might want to peruse reviews.
Other ideas:
– Can you find mentors? Are there adults in your life who you trust, who are maybe older than 30 but younger than your grandparents who’d have insight to share?
– Chat GPT is a great place to start when you have questions, but bear in mind that some of what it spits out is nonsense. It’s always a starting place, never definitive.
– Reddit has a sub for just about every topic.
However daunting all this might seem, you will be able to figure it out, one step at a time.
