I knew nothing about Dolly when I picked up this book and now i feel like she is a big sister/best friend. This memoir is so heartfelt and real, I have recommended it to every friend I know who is going through their 20's struggling with idenity, love, career and the "whats next" of it all. A genuinely funny, emotional and raw look at this crazy thing we call our 20's.

I had my doubts about this book in the beginning, but by the end of it, I couldn't help but fall in love with Dolly Alderton's words.
Everything I Know About Love is a love letter to Alderton's twenties. It's both a memoir and self-help book giving the reader advice on everything included and scratched out of the title.
By the halfway mark I wasn't as starstruck as most people are. I expected this to be more of a story on friendship because of the famous quote, but by the last 100 pages, I highlighted more than I could count.
You should all be glad this book didn't exist during my cringe Tumblr quotes repost era because you would have been SICK of me.

I am just not in the right headspace to read it. Will probably pick it up again later.

Loved this book more than I actually anticipated. I picked this book up as a palate cleanser between my fantasy books, and while I feel that I am not the target audience, there were moments in the book that really felt like some things I had gone through are a simple human experience that we all have gone through (e.g. “Growing up engenders self-awareness. And self-awareness kills a self-titled party girl stone-cold dead”) … I am a man but I’ve had that exact thought.
All in all, definitely recommend if you’re feeling left behind in your 20’s
