    About this ebook

    Everyone has that moment—the realization that adulthood has arrived, like a runaway train, and there’s no getting out of its way. From the hit Tumblr blog of the same name, F*ck! I’m in My Twenties perfectly captures the new generation currently testing the waters of post-college reality. Quick-witted and self-deprecating, the author pens irreverent missives, DIY diagrams, illustrations, and tongue-in-cheek checklists that chronicle her experience as a twenty-something living in the big city. Including the best of her beloved blog, plus over 50% new material, this is a perfect humor impulse buy for anyone who has a love-hate relationship with their twenties.

I was taunted by melancholy music, which attacked me from every direction, crawling into my ears and burrowing into the folds of my cerebral cortex. I soldiered on, the odious orchestra delving deeper into the dungeon of my being until it invaded my heart.

    Okay. Well. Not really. It wasn’t (completely) like that. Maybe I wasn’t outfitted with my own personal rain cloud, but something weird was at play. I had entered into uncharted territory. But I am getting ahead of myself. Let me begin at the beginning. Or at least in the same general area as where the beginning would be if I were any good at reflecting upon life in a super-linear fashion.
