Dolly Alderton
New York Times Bestseller"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 GirlsThe wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking internationally bestselling memoir about growing up, growing older, and learning to navigate friendships, jobs, loss, and love along the rideWhen 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. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough.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.

"At its peak, this memoir read like fiction. The stories described here are so raw, human, and utterly likeable. And, I’ll never quite stop thinking about this ending. All in all, this was a good read. I wish I could have related to this more but this was definitely for the straight people in the house! "
"honestly was expecting a lot more, it was a good book though. i think my high standards made the book a little disappointing. "

"A wonderfully written book!! The way the author creates a little life within these pages between excerpts and cute recipes is definitely a nice break from the way a regular novel is written. Also, a lot of relatable content regarding relationships and the dumb things you do in your twenty’s. "

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Such a genuine and heartfelt account of female friendships and the chaos and beauty of your 20s. Hilariously relatable. There are definitely some heavy subjects like death and recklessness, that don’t necessarily make this “light reading,” but it is worth it to see the character progression. "
"I loved loved loved this book. Highlights the importance of female relationships and your relationship with yourself. Highly suggest if you’re in your 20 something’s! "
