After the first few chapters, I wasn't sure this book would live up to the rave reviews I had seen. It was feeling more like a 3/4 star. Some lovely sentiments but a bit specific to Dolly's story (of course, this is expected with a memoir), while the anecdotes felt sporadic. The more I read, however, this book earned its five stars. The focus on love in friendships was much more powerful than my expectation of the book focusing on romantic love. Overall, there were so many lovely messages and quotes in this book, and I will definitely be looking back at it.

this book was a refreshing and honest look at how our views on life, dating, relationships, aging, and just being in general changes and grows as we do. I really enjoyed the relatability of the author and the way she was open about her story, not hiding the less than beautiful things. It was amazing to see how the author took her story to a place of self love and self discovery rather than a dependence on a mate. It was a blessing to be reminded that romantic love isn’t the only kind of love that’s out there. When I first started the book I was a little nervous about where it was headed, but really appreciated the way it ended.

So honest and reflective on the experiences of someone in their teens/ twenties. I think every woman in their 20s should read this

I laughed, cringed, and cried. Such a good book that every woman should read at least once. I loved the honest portrayal of friendship, family and hardships! Read this with my book club and we had such a fun and honest conversation. It was interesting to see all the different interpretations and experiences while reading it!
