This book was slow to start for me. I just think I wasn't in the right mood for it but it got better as it progressed. It made me laugh, and it made it cry!

I have little to no complaints about this book except for the fact that i, a chronically single person, read it the week of valentine’s day and was on the verge of tears (both happy and sad) for a majority of the book!

Be the person you wish you could be, not the person you feel you are doomed to be. Let yourself run away with your feelings. You were made so that someone could love you. Let them love you.

a wonderful account on love and friendship throughout life. alderton writes about life in such an accessible way and hones in on the ugly and beautiful parts of growing up.

I absolutely loved this book! It went from happy to sad to hopeful every few chapters and it’s message is one of acceptance, love and realising you are enough. Cannot wait to read more from Dolly Alderton!
