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.

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

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.
