<p>I second kiddie’s suggestion:
The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter–And How to Make the Most of Them Now by Meg Jay</p>
<p>I heard an interview with the author and then read the book. I immediately forwarded it on to my twenty-something son and wished I (and he) had read it BEFORE college. I’ve also recommended it to my twenty-something daughter as well.</p>
<p>The other reading recommendations are wonderful, but THIS book is practical and highly relevant to these kids. The difficulty is that many of them probably just won’t realize it :)</p>
