"There is no writer quite like Dolly Alderton working today and very soon the world will know it.” —Lisa Taddeo, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women “Dolly Alderton has always been a sparkling Roman candle of talent. She is funny, smart, and explosively engaged in the wonders and weirdness of the world. But what makes this memoir more than mere entertainment is the mature and sophisticated evolution that Alderton describes in these pages. It’s a beautifully told journey and a thoughtful, important book. I loved it.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and City of Girls The wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking internationally bestselling memoir about growing up, growing older, and learning to navigate friendships, jobs, loss, and love along the ride When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, journalist and former Sunday Times columnist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, realizing that Ivan from the corner shop might just be the only reliable man in her life, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends.

Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age—making you want to pick up the phone and tell your best friends all about it. Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true, Everything I Know About Love is about the struggles of early adulthood in all its terrifying and hopeful uncertainty. Review: The book has everything! - It was real, fresh and breath taking. Couldn't have read this book at a better time! So glad that my friend recommended it, and it's gonna be on my re read list for a long time! Review: A Riveting read. - "𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘢 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧. 𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦, 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘦𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳." This book is a wholesome representation of human life friendships, love affairs, heartbreaks, career ups and downs and the wisdom which got collected into the pot through exploration. Her life is gracefully capsulized in a few words, a perfect blend of raw wisdom and vulnerability. The writing is top-notch, witty and hilarious in a humorous way. You feel you are sitting in front of her and having your own VIP experience. The idea of a memoir in the early 20s and 30s is a unique way of expressing how insanely piquant one can be. Who said it's all about good decisions? The wrong one matters equally. Those heartbreaks are the epitome of our resilient self and adoring that part is irrefutable. It beautifully depicts the female friendship beyond companionship, how two different personalities can coexist together and make a home together irrespective of their differences. It touches on the point of self-love". People tend to fill the void in their hearts and look outside for the piece of the puzzle to fit there, which was never a Pokémon to be collected. The amount of time you can resonate with the emotion she has displayed here is insane, everyone is kind of juggling in their own life in a shuffled manner. Overall, it was a riveting read leaving you to contemplate "your pages"!!
