Summary |
Points of You shares real and unfiltered accounts of what four friends from MIT wish they'd known while growing up. The book is composed of short stories and reflections broken into fifteen sections with accompanying illustrations -- a unique format that one reviewer described as allowing "the four authors to speak directly to the reader, as if you were sitting in a circle with them and having an intimate conversation. This book wrestles with some of the deepest issues that teenagers and young adults struggle with, such as mental wellness, finding purpose, and navigating relationships. Nobody has the answers to life, but through the perspectives of four very different people, thousands of young adults, parents, and teachers have already found understanding and new points of view. |

"We are four MIT students, going through life like everyone else. There are some things we wish we had known earlier, and other things we have to remind ourselves of every day. This book includes the stories, lessons, and mistakes that make us who we are. Our musings are real and unfiltered. We hope you find companionship in our backgrounds, understanding in our mistakes, and a new point of view through what we have to share."--Page 4 of cover. |
