A review by hannahmariebrankley
Dear Dolly: On Love, Life and Friendship, Collected wisdom from her Sunday Times Style Column by Dolly Alderton

4.0

Dolly Alderton is an agony aunt columnist who has been with The Sunday Times since 2020. A best selling author, Dolly has released two books in this style of collated agony aunt asks and one fiction book titled Ghosts, which is also on my want to read list for this year.

I really liked reading how Dolly came to be an agony aunt. I too always went straight to the agony aunt sections in magazines. We do forget about the writers behind the columns.

With the columns, I find Dolly’s advice is like talking to a long-time friend. I found myself reading all these issues that may or may not happen to me and thinking “noted”. It’s definitely a light, quick read with advice you can take away or come back to.

It’d made me realise I need to read more non-fiction. 4 Stars.
