Selected for Stylist's The Decade's 15 Best Books by Remarkable Women

Award-winning journalist Dolly Alderton survived her 20s (just about) and in Everything I Know About Love, she gives an unflinching account of the bad dates and squalid flat-shares, the heartaches and humiliations and most importantly, the unbreakable female friendships that helped her to hold it all together. Glittering with wit, heart and humour, this is an audiobook to press into the hands of every woman who has ever been there or is about to find themselves taking that first step towards the rest of their lives.

Womanhood and friendship

Although it felt like I won’t relate to this story which is set up in the UK, the universe of young friendship, love, heartbreak and happiness was so appealing! The narration is funny and can really crack you up at times. Overall a great book if you’re looking for something that’s easy, light yet compelling.

a fun, cozy and fantastic book on being a woman

like it very much but the last 3 chapters were read by someone else and that made a difference to a satisfying ending.

Falling headlong into Dolly's life

When I started this book I thought it wasn't my cup of tea but decided to give it a try because the narration was so smooth and effortless. Then the honesty of her life's account drew me in, then the relatability of it.
The lyrical descriptions of mundane activities or intimate emotions makes the listener wish they could remember each phrase and wish it would not slip away after the book was over. I was won over by her

Chiefly British, but in a nice way.

Livid first half, Lit second half!
The book is kinda eurocentric.... many experiences which are almost everyday affairs might seem like dream to many despite it being very grounded. However, the story reflects honesty and strikes the chords at a very emotional level.

A Comfort Read

Someone once said to me a long time ago “however you’re feeling right now, there’s a book for that” and this is the book of the moment. Starts off shaky but it picks up. Dolly is a gifted writer, she’s witty and humorous which keeps you going. I recommend this to every millennial woman.

Credit wasted

Just an endless account of a rich white girl partying and drinking with girlfriends in her 20s.The storyline is disappointing.There is nothing inspirational or admirable in the entire story,Nothing to emulate or enjoy in the narrative.I am at a loss as to why people would read this.
