A review by orcamagicka
The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter and How to Make the Most of Them Now by Meg Jay

4.5

My one criticism is that this book is very much from a cishetero lense and fails to consider the diverse perspectives of queer identities and relationships (especially asexuals, aromantics, and queer-platonic relationships). The way heterosexual relationships were discussed personally gave me the "ick" but that may be due to my own perceptions as a queer person who leans very heavily on the ace/aro spectrum. To be fair this book was published in 2013, so readers should also consult other perspective besides this book (especially from more modern sources pertaining to Gen Z).

Besides that, this was a very insightful book and I feel every young person should read it.
