A comic pep talk for life after graduation

Glenn Boozan frames post-college uncertainty through comic comparisons between graduates’ worries and the mistakes or hardships associated with historical figures and earlier eras. The book’s central reassurance is that a degree does not guarantee a trouble-free life, but uncertainty need not rule out a bright future. Its humor is paired with an earnest message about following what makes life feel meaningful, giving the graduation-gift premise a focus beyond career choices or academic majors.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fitting gift for recent college graduates facing the uncertainties of life after school.

Book overview

The perfect gift for college graduates to assure them that yes, the world is hard, but yes, they will be ok--even if they majored in English! A hilarious and reassuring book from the New York Times bestselling author of There Are Moms Way Worse Than You.

Life after graduation can feel a little scary, but this book is the perfect reminder that all will be okay because you could have a PhD and still make huge mistakes:

  • All the smartest men with big degrees in engineering couldn't even build a boat with serviceable steering.
  • Brilliant Marie Curie won awards for innovation and still messed up by giving herself deadly radiation.
  • Galileo, he became the best astronomer. All it ever did was make him quite unpopular.

So please take this heartfelt sentiment from history: You could end up dead or broke, whatever your degree.But! Have you considered it's way better than the past? 1300s Europe didn't rue the price of eggs. Kinda hard to do that when you're dying from the Plague.

At Least You're Not an English Major is a tongue-in-cheek reminder to every graduate that the future can be bright despite life's many uncertainties--as long as you follow every wild thing that makes your heart feel whole.
