this book is probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. i cannot tell you how much i learned from it.
i did not only find dolly to be unimaginably relatable in several ways (a thing that was very likely to happen, seeing as though both dolly and i are virgos lol) but also so very inspiring and someone i will inevitably find myself thinking of when being approached at a bar or when seeing a funny street sign. she's the kind of friend i so desperately wish i had. this book made me laugh, it made me cry, to be honest it made me feel all sorts of things.
from nights spent drinking, chain smoking and making bad decisions to finally accepting herself for exactly who she is and shining light on all of her imperfections, dolly stays so painfully honest through it all, explains so profoundly what it is to be human and clarifies that it's impossible living a life without making mistakes.
this book is honestly so full with lectures and talk on love and life and as a 17 year old i found it so incredibly helpful in so many ways. i will seriously never forget this book. dolly's words and beliefs will forever be engraved in my mind and soul. <3
