New favorite book
I’ve heard about this book a lot. It was not exactly what I was expecting. But I enjoyed reading it. I felt like I was listening to my crazy friend life story.I do not approve most of the life choices of the author and as a woman that grew up in a Christian household I can’t relate to her experiences (fortunately).What I can relate is the feeling of being lost in my twenties and trying to be happy only through romantic relationships. I’m excited to read more about this author.

personal thoughts
this book makes me feel related in certain aspects of the author’s life from a teen till someone who is in her 30s.pretty good read, doesn’t make you feel like you’re lacking behind when comparing urself to others. the book gives you the author’s personal lifestory/insights as well. it rlly makes you understand and feel that everyone has their own timeline in certain parts of their lives and it’s completely fine.

A good book for those who are learning to love themselves
This book is really good I just believe I not the proper audience. Dollys relationships with others and herself change and grow as she gets older and we see how she deals with each of those relationships. I quite enjoyed it as someone who grew up with budding technology and as a woman in general growing older. I believe the separation comes in as I am a queer American woman. Where’s Dolly makes a lot of allusions to living in London that sometimes makes it harder to follow along. Along with being queer almost all of her struggles revolve around her relationships with men. When I was younger I did used to center men so I was able to relate but as she got older and life for her became a party it was hard to see myself in her. Not saying that she did anything wrong I just believe it is a difference in the type of people we are. I really did enjoy the chapters on her relationships with friends as it is very unique to girlhood and thought it would end strong. Also with her chapters growing older. I am still in my twenties but even now I feel that weight of getting older. But then it comes back around to dating as an older woman. I loved her message but like I said I just think it wasn’t for me. She is a beautiful writer and I will definitely check out her other work as well.

A Thoughtful and Relatable Gift
I bought this book as a gift for a friend, and it was a huge hit! The author’s raw and honest reflections on love, relationships, and self-discovery are beautifully written. she said every chapter felt like a conversation with a close friend. It’s emotional, funny, and full of wisdom. definitely a must-read for anyone looking for a real take on love. Highly recommend!

One of the best books I have ever read
How do I even begin to explain what this book means to me? this book talks about love in all shapes and all sizes. Love in the nature of friendship, and love in the nature in romance. It makes you look at yourself and understand these parts of you as a person, the good and the bad. The things that make life worth living. It’s womanhood, the shared tears and laugher with your closest friends. The memories of good and bad experiences but with a view of how they have made you who you are today, and what you will be. The easy and the difficult, the fun and the hard. It’s a book about navigating life and all the shit that comes with that.

4 stars
I actually thought this memoir was really fun. The email/letter chapters were so funny and I agreed with a lot of what she was conveying in them. I also enjoyed the recipes thrown in as well. Some laughs, some heartbreaks, some hard truths but a fun read
