New York Times Bestseller Everything I Know About Love now streaming on Peacock! "There is no writer quite like Dolly Alderton working today and very soon the world will know it.” —Lisa Taddeo, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women “Dolly Alderton has always been a sparkling Roman candle of talent. She is funny, smart, and explosively engaged in the wonders and weirdness of the world. But what makes this memoir more than mere entertainment is the mature and sophisticated evolution that Alderton describes in these pages. It’s a beautifully told journey and a thoughtful, important book. I loved it.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and City of Girls The wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking internationally bestselling memoir about growing up, growing older, and learning to navigate friendships, jobs, loss, and love along the ride When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, journalist and former Sunday Times columnist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, realizing that Ivan from the corner shop might just be the only reliable man in her life, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough. Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age—making you want to pick up the phone and tell your best friends all about it. Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true, Everything I Know About Love is about the struggles of early adulthood in all its terrifying and hopeful uncertainty.

Must Read!
This memoir is fun, chaotic, and deeply relatable. Dolly takes us through heartbreaks, bad dates, and quarter-life crises, but the real heart of the book is friendship — the messy, loyal, life-saving kind between women.It’s funny and vulnerable at the same time. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and you’ll probably text your best friend halfway through.This one deserves a spot at the top of your TBR.

A good read
I really enjoyed many parts of the book. I think Dolly clearly knows how to engage and captivate people into reading her book. Eventhough many parts like drugs and alchol were not familar for me, the friendship, work life and her mental well being were something I could relate to and I felt close to those parts of book. Some chapters were funny, while others made me emotional and by the end, I felt the change in her through her writing. This is simply one of the good memoir and I would highly suggest it to someone in their late twenties especially.

A Riveting read.
"𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘢 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧.

You feel you are sitting in front of her and having your own VIP experience.The idea of a memoir in the early 20s and 30s is a unique way of expressing how insanely piquant one can be.Who said it's all about good decisions? The wrong one matters equally. Those heartbreaks are the epitome of our resilient self and adoring that part is irrefutable.It beautifully depicts the female friendship beyond companionship, how two different personalities can coexist together and make a home together irrespective of their differences.It touches on the point of self-love". People tend to fill the void in their hearts and look outside for the piece of the puzzle to fit there, which was never a Pokémon to be collected.The amount of time you can resonate with the emotion she has displayed here is insane, everyone is kind of juggling in their own life in a shuffled manner.Overall, it was a riveting read leaving you to contemplate "your pages"!!

Good quality book but not my cup of tea
Nothing wrong with the physical book, but I just didn’t enjoy it

loved this one!
I understand that some people don't see the point in the book, because there is no plot in the classical way. But that's what I LOVED about it. It is fun on the one hand and made me cry on the other hand, it has it's ups and downs - and that is just like life is! My personal life couldn't be more different to Dolly Aldertons but I just enjoyed all the stories and just felt so included like I would be part of her life. It's a memoir so don't expect a proper story but more like snippets of a life of someone in her twenties exploring herself, love, her friends, her life.
