Life after graduation, with expectations still in flux

Five years after leaving Paradise Valley University, Alexandra, Chasity, Malajia, Sidra, and Emily are navigating adulthood in very different circumstances. The description centers on the gap between the lives they have built and the contentment they hoped those lives would bring: career dissatisfaction and unresolved feelings, pressures of work and motherhood, and the demands of caring for young twins. Emily is preparing for marriage, adding another transition to this group portrait of post-college life. The book’s focus on friendship, family, work, and changing expectations carries the college setting into the less settled years that follow graduation.

But for this former party girl, chasing after two active three-year old's all day, every day, is starting to wear thin. She's not sure how long she can keep this up before she loses it.
