Your Turn: How to be an Adult<\/em><\/strong> by Julie Lythcott-Haims<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many, college is time of transition from childhood to adulthood — it’s a time to learn how to be personally responsible for oneself. Lythcott-Haims book is full of guidance and encouragement about successful “adulting.” This is a book about the big picture, not how to balance a bank account and make grilled cheese, although those are useful too. In addition to wonderful advice, Your Turn ,<\/em> utilizes many personal stories to great effect in illustrating the challenges, strategies, and triumphs of becoming an adult.
