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)

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.
