Dear 25 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692152157)

Like many, Nyasia rushed her childhood by ignoring its wonders to focus on getting her life together by the time she turned 25. After the loss of two prominent figures of her family and not quite meeting her teenage expectations, Nyasia is forced to take on her biggest enemy -- herself. In Dear 25, the Brooklyn native is faced with the task of reshaping her life to fit the woman her quarter-life crisis was creating. Dear 25 explores what it's like to challenge the ideas of elders and acknowledging the dangers of a romanticized view of success.
