'Adulting 101' by Josh Burnette and Pete Hardesty is a practical guide for young adults transitioning into the real world. Covering topics like finding a job, managing finances, and building healthy habits, this book offers valuable advice for navigating the challenges of adulthood.

Perfect gifting material for those graduation high school or college and to gift for those moving out of the home for the first time or slowing adulting in today's time.

Adulting 101 is such an insightful book and I know it would be most helpful to Young Adults who need to prepare for adulthood. Everyone says 'Adulting is hard' but this book teaches you how to avoid the most common errors many adults make.

The book breakdown 'adulting' in small manageable chunks that almost make you feel comfortable about going into this thing called adulthood. It sets the tone for how you can be prepared for real life...or how you can prepare the younger ones around you for real life.

The most interesting chapter to me was the one about Money management. It provides a practical foundation to wise money management.

So you're done with high school or even college and now you're ready to start your first job, find a place to live and hopefully set yourself up for a successful life and career. But how do you actually do that? What do you need to avoid debt and other common mistakes young adults make?

This book wants to help you and prepare you for the challenges you'll have to face entering into "adult" life. It contains great advice on how to dress for and behave during a job interview, how to spend and save your money wisely, what to look out for when buying a car and many other things. It also focuses on how to be a good leader and how to foster personal growth.

I really liked the idea of this book and I found it easy and entertaining to read. The authors give some examples from their lives to illustrate their points and you could really see how they care about young adults and genuinely want them to thrive. I think that many tips are really important and helpful. The authors never came across as patronizing or lecturing.

The only critique that I have is that at some point, the advice was a little bit superficial. This book is also strongly focused on the American social system, which I think is totally fine for the target audience. It's just something you should keep in mind when you live in a different (english-speaking) country and consider buying this book. But even then it would still contain many helpful suggestions that are applicable for other countries and systems as well.

I think this book would be perfect as a gift for any graduates you know (and if you are a young adult, it's perfect for you, too!). Very much recommended. I wish I had something similar for my country (I will keep looking for it)!

I didn't love this. I couldn't get beyond the repeated use of hastags. I love a good self help book. This just wasn't the one for me.

This book is what all college kids need. From freshman thru grads- and even graduating high school seniors. Tons of absolutely needed info wiitten by one guy who has spent his adult life leading adolescents and another who is Chick Fil A operator with incredibel business sense. Terrific advice. Heartily recoommend this book

Can you ever have too much good advice? NOPE!! I wish someone had told me…

…some of these things before I left for college. I would have had less financial trouble in front of me and more good decisions behind me. Know anyone that you wish could skip common life mistakes? I’ve already made a mental list of three college-aged young people that are going to be gifted with this book; my daughter is one of them.

Adulting 101 is like every piece of helpful advice someone could get from wise parents, uncles and aunts, grandparents, and financial advisors compacted into one book. It has reams of practical, useful advice on a wide array of subjects from how to dress for a job interview and how to get the best deal for a car to deciding between renting an apartment or buying a house. There’s advice on relating to others, being a good leader, investing, and so much more that would be boring for me to actually list it all out. (Check out the table of contents.) There’s not a lot of fluff. Okay, there’s not ANY fluff.

I think it’d be awesome if this book was required reading for high school juniors or seniors. There are some things where everyone is better off if we don’t have to learn it the hard way.

My only complaints about this book are that 1) the info is so dense, the lists could have been broken up more into sections with easy-to-find headings or indexed, and 2) the appendices have so much good information, they should have been included as part of the book itself, since so many people ignore appendices. I’d hate for anyone to miss the advice in the appendices that is not replicated in the body of the book itself.

Heads-up, this is a Christian book, although that only crops up in a couple of sections, and the advice in Adulting 101 is valid no matter one’s creed or religion. No advice is invalidated by that context. I just mention that for the sake of those who find it unacceptable to come into contact with anything remotely touching upon Christianity.
