Ruminations on Twentysomething Life

by Aaron Karo

IS THERE LIFE AFTER COLLEGE?
In this sidesplitting follow-up to his smash hit, Ruminations on College Life, Aaron Karo takes readers on another outrageous journey -- this time through his early twenties. With hilarious anecdotes and irreverent observations, Karo captures the twentysomething experience like never before and answers the question, "Is there life after college?"
Featuring the very best of his world-renowned email column as well as brand-new material published here for the first time, Ruminations on Twentysomething Life details Karo's evolution from frat boy to manhood and explores the frenzied lives of a generation living in the strange and unique gap between college and marriage. With his trademark acerbic wit, Karo ruminates on everything from your first day on the job to the last call at the bar.
Perfect for students about to get their first dose of reality, twentysomethings procrastinating at work, or anyone who wants to relive their glory days, this book is sure to have readers laughing out loud and nodding their heads in agreement that there is indeed life after college.

So I read this book because I enjoyed the first one so much, but the fact that he was 26 when he wrote it, it was virtually over my head because I had yet to experience anything he was joking about. BUT if you are in your early 30s and out of that crazy first apartment, first job and your very first friends who get married, by all means this is awesome.

Full of the musings, misadventures, and anecdotes of a guy who is learning to live life on his own in New York City. Some are more funny than others and some are easier to relate to than others but overall I enjoyed it and got a few laughs from his sarcastic musings or him just making an ass out of himself.

I read his column that he writes every two weeks and this guy just makes me laugh and I can relate to everything that he writes.

This followup focuses on post-college life.

Not as good as the first book, but it has its moments.
