I see so many coming of age books, and I love the feel of a lot of them. Is there anything youd recommended for going into your 30s?
Not like a self help book, just something relatable for my age group.
I think I like the coming of age books because I was a depressed teen and everyone told me “you’ll grow out of it” I’m turning 29 and I still haven’t grown out of it lol.
So I guess Ive always been waiting to “grow out of it” and it’s kinda made me feel like it’s not something adults are supposed to struggle with? So I relate to these depressed teen books.

I’m in late 30s now, and I read a book recently that made me say “I wish I’d read this at 30,” so yes I have the perfect book for you: Everything I Know About Love, by Dolly Alderton. It’s a memoir, it’s fantastic, 5 stars in my opinion. I thought it was so damn relatable.
