I found the first half to be a bit confusing especially with all the time jumps. At one point she's 20 and then rewind to when Dolly is 15 and the fast forward to the next boyfriend, I got quite lost.
The 2nd half of the book I loved. It's written so intimately I felt like I was really seeing inside Dolly's 20-something head and holding onto every bit of advice she gave.
I'm 22 now but maybe I'll reread this book in a year or 2 and see if there's more I can take from it. At the moment all I can think is I wish I had the love of a friendship group like Dolly's.

I loved this book. I must say, at the beginning I felt weirded out by it, just a little, her infancy and teenage years were something. But as soon as we reached the 20's more specifically the 25's I started to adore this book (might have something to do with the fact that I was turning 25 when I reached the part when she's 25), I started to feel so related with this book at that part, so understood. Since reading it I have done nothing but recommend this book. Loved the memoir, I'll be reading more of those hoping to find something like this again. Some chapters are so funny, and some are so chaotic, and there's a couple that are so sad, I just enjoyed this book so much overall that I finished it in less than a week. Please read this book, you won't regret it (most likely)

Aber letztendlich ging es hier doch hauptsächlich um ihre zwanziger, Dolly lebt ein äußerst turbulentes Leben bei dem sie oft auf die Fresse fällte, doch letztendlich lernt sie darauf und wird irgendwann während des Buches besser, hier kommt dann der „lernt aus meinen Fehlern Faktor“ den man eigentlich garnicht ignorieren kann. Denn es ist so klar aber auch subtil ausgelegt, dass man auch irgendwie von ihr lernen will. Dieses Buch ist wie die große Schwester die einem über ihre Erfahrungen erzählt. Aber ein netter touch daran waren auch die Rezepte, kann es nicht abwarten die nach zu machen
