Lessons In Our (Early) 30s is a how to guide in navigating life after 30. The book reads like a series of blog posts. You are treated to tips and tricks, like the five minute face, to what to expect from your thirty year old body. It’s a light read and if you looking for a few good excercises or antedotes for a newly turned 30 year old women, this book is for you. Each women gives their take on the subject matter, telling their stories in alternating tales. At only approximately 30 pages its a quick read.

Being at the latter end of my thirties, some of these things make me look back and laugh that I ever worried about them, others found me nostalgic at the thought of them. A lot of the lessons are things that apply to all ages though. Like eating healthy or drinking lots of water.

If you have a millennial that needs a few pointers on finally approaching that milestone of adulthood or if you want to know what’s trendy now, this is a great book to pick up. Social media is the new normal and the authors have their pulse on the scene.
