Since I read a number of books on the T in the morning, I am always looking for some good recommendations. However, I have spent quite some time going through books on Amazon.com and rating the ones I've read, so they generally have some good recommendations for me. One of these books was Girls in White Dresses by Jennifer Close. What caught me was the description, saying that the book followed a couple of girls after college trying to make it through life and jobs and watching their friends get married...and they're not.
This book was interesting to me, and it did a great job of tracking the lives of 4 friends after graduating from college. The reader follows their lives until they are a little over thirty and finally become OK with who they are. As most of us know, there is a lot of growing up that happens through your 20's, and this book shows just how much in its pages.
The book is written from the view of each of the four girls and you start out by going to parties with them and laughing about the random hook-ups, to following them through the first boyfriends out of school. From there you see how the characters make some life changing decisions about work and love.
Having lived through most of the same situations made this read really fun, and I was almost reflective seeing how much life has changed for me since I graduated college. No matter what stage you are at in your post-college life, you will see yourself in this book, which makes it a fun read.
