It's a good book but many elements maybe will not fit the life of people. It's still a good book, it's very reflective about life. Its have good advice but as I mention not everything is for everyone. But still is a good book to read at least once.

i really really wanted to love this book and there were definitely parts i loved and enjoyed but it also contained a lot of aspects and decisions i didn’t understand

the first third of the book felt very slow and i found the drug and alcohol abuse in that part very frustrating but i enjoyed reading about her twenties a lot, which might be due to the fact that i’m in my twenties

not sure who i would recommend this to

This book was like a little roast turkey for my brain to pick apart. It had some indescribable quality (dare I say, je ne sais quoi) that I rarely find; it makes you think and reflect. This is the kind of writing that sticks with you. The content of the book was incredible, but Dolly Alderton is also great at delivering it in a way that keeps an audience yearning for more stories from her youth or life lessons to be shared. Something I think is executed brilliantly in this book is how she writes from different perspectives (at different ages) and her tone shifts. This made reading the book all the more entertaining, in addition to the funny takes and ridiculous life stories that Dolly Alderton seems to have endless bounds of. She also writes about the value of female friendship, which is often overlooked and not discussed enough. I would go as far as to say that the biggest takeaway from this book is that the love found in friendships is just as significant as any kind of romantic love. To summarize, this book is a must-read, especially for anyone in their adolescence and especially for women. And anyone that is past adolescence or knows a woman. Basically, everyone should read this book.
