IN YOUR 20 'S
⭐️Overall rating: 5/5
👍Pros: If you have been following the Ellis Family during their Facebook video days, this book is truly authentic to who they are as a couple. From their style of prose and various sentence structure, I can literally hear them talking to me. With Facebook you only get to glimmer of all the life scenarios they share with us, and this book is a total deep dive into all the aspects of their life they don’t (or at least didn’t) share on their various platforms.
Most of their content now is exclusive as you have to get through paywalls to access them, even though they do still post short videos of Facebook from time to time, so this book was a nice throwback to the lives I was used to seeing from them way back when.
Even though they don’t want to be “couple goals” their relationship and family dynamic is definitely one I think people in relationships, want to be in relationships, or for people who have/want to have families should consider.
🤔Cons: Obviously the book couldn’t be too long but I wished they dived a little bit more into some topics they didn’t have enough book room for. However this is a MINOR con, they dove deep into everything I really needed them to and for that I am appreciative.
