Alida Nugent graduated college with a degree in one hand and a drink in the other, eager to trade in parties and all-nighters for "the real world". But post-grad wasn't the glam life she imagined. Soon buried under a pile of bills, laundry, and three-dollar bottles of wine, it quickly became clear that she had no idea what she was doing. But hey, what twentysomething does?
In Don't Worry, It Gets Worse, Nugent shares what it takes to make the awkward leap from undergrad to "mature and responsible adult that definitely never eats peanut butter straight from the jar and considers it a meal". From trying to find an apartment on the black hole otherwise known as Craigslist to the creative maneuvering needed to pay off student loans and still enjoy happy hour, Nugent documents the formative moments of being a twentysomething with a little bit of snark and a lot of heart. Perfect for fans of HBO's Girls and Allie Brosh's Hyperbole and a Half, and based on her popular Tumblr blog The Frenemy, Don't Worry, It Gets Worse is a love note to boozin', bitchin' ladies everywhere.

I love her outlook on everyday life. You will find yourself laughing out loud and wanting to share with others, especially Drop My Keys in a Place I Call My Own and Adventures in Retail. Very fun book. Love the cover too!

Modern day masterpiece for fellow twentysomething "spilled coffee on shirt" and "elastic waistbands do it better"-ers By Hayley Have you ever read a book that felt like it was directly speaking to you? This is that book. For me, at least. I graduated from college about 2 weeks ago. A week later was Christmas. My sweet, endearing older sister got me this book as a gift. Not sure if it was a gag, or a sincere note towards the impending doom of my post-graduate future, I accepted it with grace and added to the things I would be reading with the immense amount of free time I had in the coming weeks (the weird in-between of graduation and job seeking is a very strange, unknowing time). When I cracked open the book for the first time I became unruly excited because Nugent gives the reader a list. Not just any list at that - I wouldn't want you to think I have some sort of weird list fetish. This list is composed of yes/no questions to answer to determine whether or not this book is for you. Of these questions Nugent poses, some include "Would you rather feast on hummus or cheese than have sex with somebody who doesn't read books, drinks protein shakes, or has a goatee?" and "Does your college degree hang over your head like a rain cloud made of student loans, false hopes, and rapidly falling dreams?" and best of all: "Liz Lemon?" - I properly exclaimed "yes, yes, and YES" to these questions along with many more like some sort of crazed lunatic you'd find gnawing on her arm in the corner of a subway wearing a tyedye cut-off and pants with feathers (that's a thing, right?). Then I agreed to embark on reading this novel, and not halfway like the lukewarm relationship I have with many books where I reach 50 pages, figure I've gotten the jist, and never pick it up again. No, this book was different. This book I'd done something I so rarely do. So rarely that I may have never done it before, at least not since Harry Potter came out or I found a strange novel about Africa in my Dad's old chest of drawers: I read it in 1 night.Well, at least 160 pages deep before I fell asleep drooling on myself at 2:30 AM and woke up not so promptly the next morning/afternoon to resume where I had left off. But regardless, I digested this masterpiece in less than 24 hours, which makes me feel entitled to say I did read it in 1 night, so we are going to go with that.Nugent has a spectacular knack at saying exactly what I so often shamefully think. Like how yes, I would much rather sit at home on Friday night playing Scrabble in my flannel pajamas with the stretchy elastic waistband than dragging myself to a bar that plays EDM and having someone spill a Long Island in my hair. Similarly, how the feeling of moving to a new city is daunting and relentlessly overwhelming, but also the best way to find yourself - by getting a little lost. She reminds us that being fresh out of college can really suck. And it gets messy. But that it's also a beautiful time of growth and development. And it won't be easy, and it will be scary. But at least she's honest. A lot more honest than we get in college when people pump up or dreams and tell you that being a philosophy major is perfectly acceptable and why not take a class on ancient civilizations because surely that will come in handy when you need to find a decent paying job as the first student loan payment rolls in.No, I am not bitter.Anyway, I am not the type to write reviews. Nor am I the type to stay up all night reading a novel. But this book is different, and I would recommend it to anyone who is in the somewhat same state of life as me. Or anyone really. Do yourself a favor and just read something good, like this. I half wrote this too hoping Nugent would read it herself and think, "Hey, let's be friends". Because she's really cool, and I want to be her friend. And you will too after you read this.Also, Alida, if you read this will you please write more? I found myself facing literal depression when the book was over. Okay, maybe that was dramatic, but I did feel sad when it was over. I can only hope that you continue writing and that I will have the pleasure of reading it.In short, fellow reviewers, read this book. You won't regret it.
12 of 16 people found the following review helpful. Too whiny to be funny By Sam E I found this book so hard to read, but forced myself to sit through 3/4 of it, since a friend had recommended it.The good: Alida Nugent is a good, funny writer, with a strong voice, who will undoubtedly write great pieces as she continues to develop her talent. Her admissions of personal embarrassments are all the funnier bc she knows and you know that they're typical of many twentysomethings in her position.The bad: Scattered moments of self-deprecation and we-all-do-it candor are great, but a book full of stories of self-loathing and shame just comes of as whiny. It's like being forced to sit through a self-pitying conversation with that friend who (albeit funny) always feels herself to be the victim of the world. Luckily, while you have to smile and bite your tongue with friends (or be strong and tell them to snap out of it), you can just put down this book and walk away.
