Rent Adulthood for Beginners: All the Life Secrets Nobody Bothered to Tell You

Synopsis

A smart, funny, and essential survival guide that you didn't know you needed. But you do.

As any current or former 20-something knows, life can be a bit awkward and weird because no one tells you what to expect. Many of us spend a decade or more figuring out how the world works through a humbling process of trial and error that by age 30 we're hoping no one who was there remembers.

Does Boyle have everything figured out? Of course not. But the breezy and funny advice, lists, jokes, and other helpful tidbits in this engaging book will help readers get through the hard parts faster, guaranteed. (OK, not literally guaranteed.)

Topics include:

The Asshole Test -- The most important thing you need to know about success is that people don't like assholes. So here's how to not be one.

Don't Be Creepy -- A long list of things that you may think are cute, but are, generally, super creepy, and you should avoid.

Should I Get Back With My Ex? -- Probably not.
Increasing Your Luck Surface Area -- So much in life is about luck. But you can increase your chances of being lucky. Here's how.

Resume Dos and OMG DO NOTs -- How to make a resume that actually stands out, and what on a resume screams "plz do not hire me."

The Difference Between Relaxing and Wasting Time -- Learning to relax can take years. But figuring out the difference between relaxing and wasting time can take even longer. The secrets are revealed here.
