SO GOOD. it had my laughing out loud on one page, crying on the next. a beautiful reflection on navigating love and life and friendships and yourself from thirteen to thirty. largely a meditation on the boundless beauty of female friendships. and coming into your own self along the way. so many gems and lessons on love and life in this book. i can’t recommend it enough, particularly for women roughly 18-35 who are just trying to figure it all out and navigate this thing called life. a gem!!!!

Je n'ai pas trouvé ça drôle, ni tou ...more

3,5 stars

This book felt like a warm hug.
A lot of the topics and situations are not new or shocking, but it’s a nice feeling to know, that other people also struggle with that.

I love that Dolly Alderton always comes back to her friendships with women. We live in a society where romantic love is the ultimate life goal and because of that it feels like we don’t appreciate our friendships as we should.

This is one of those books that you have to read at the right time for you to make it a 5 ⭐️ read. It brings a welcome reminder you’re allowed to be a chaotic being. A reminder I definitely needed. Comforting, honest, hopeful.
