challenging emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

For me this was like reading the diary of the older sister I never had.

Even tho I'm in my 20's and I can't relate to most of this book (I'm from a third world country and way too scared of men) it was nice (and scary af) reading about Dolly's experiences with dealing with her ownself, men and friends and all these kinds of love and relationships.

Her little life lessons gave me a lot to reflect and to consider in these years of my life where we are like baby adults trying to find a place to fit.

My favorite parts were when she talks about her friendships with women (specially Fairly), I really loved that.

3.0

the first half of the book’s timeline was all over the place and confusing. i would’ve dnf-ed it but i am too stubborn for that. 
the second half of the book

especially after florence’s death

felt more real and relatable and i did start to take more interest in it overall. 
i’m torn because i think there were some good quotes and i like the way she described platonic friendship love. but i truly struggled to finish it and i think it put me in a reading slump. 
i’ve never read any of her fiction work and i don’t think i would want to after my lackluster experience with this book. i know that sounds horrible but i am just being honest :(
