About this deal

having loved dolly’s previous works, particularly ‘everything i know about love’ (which is an all time favourite of mine), i was excited to devour more of her words of wisdom. What surprised me most about this book on the positive side was the way it is written in which, as is the collection of Dolly's advice in the Dear Dolly column in The Sunday Times Style, we can read the person's perspective and doubts about a certain subject and then the answer provided by Dolly. She puts so much thought and effort into her answers and some of the problems she deals with are SO relatable. For years, New York Times bestselling author Dolly Alderton has been sharing her wisdom, warmth, and wit with the diverse universe of fans who have turned to her “Dear Dolly” column seeking guidance on a host of life problems.

i look forward to dipping in and out of it the next time i find myself wishing i had a millennial big sister to bring me back down to earth. I loved Everything I Know About Love and was hoping some of the questions or responses would be more risqué.Her first novel Ghosts was published in October 2020 and was also a top five Sunday Times Bestseller. Her first book Everything I Know About Love became a top five Sunday Times bestseller in its first week of publication and won a National Book Award (UK) for Autobiography of the Year. While none of the questions selected for this book was really compatible with my life right now, I still found reading her replies empathetic and friendly.

Without judgement, and with deep empathy informed by her own, much-chronicled adventures with love, friends, and dating, Dolly helps us navigate the labyrinths of life. It was as if I had crept down to the docks under cover of darkness and floated a message out in a bottle, imagining how it might be received. The pre-loved books are carefully cleaned and maintained offering a wide variety of general and specialist titles from children's to adults. some of the excerpts applied to me today, some will apply to me in the future, some maybe never but i enjoyed reading each piece so much.Ebooks fulfilled through Glose cannot be printed, downloaded as PDF, or read in other digital readers (like Kindle or Nook). What I learnt from sharing my most private pain with a semi-professional problem-solver was that the mere act of asking for help was, in itself, healing. Alderton is Nora Ephron for the millennial generation' Elizabeth DaySince early 2020, Dolly Alderton has been sharing her wisdom, warmth and wit with the countless people who have written in to her Dear Dolly agony aunt column in The Sunday Times Style. dear dolly is made up of snippets from dolly alderton's agony aunt column in the sunday times, so it’s the perfect, low-maintenance book that you can dip in and out of whenever you have 5 minutes. Sent pictures of various pages to my friends and I know I’ll be referring back to it at times of need.

If you're looking for some encouragement and advice with issues in your life, then this meaningful book just might hit the spot. Although I didn't love Everything I Know About Love at the time I read it (and have already reached the conclusion that it was a matter of right book-wrong time), I really like Dolly's writing.

Dolly has thoughtfully answered questions ranging from the painfully—and sometimes hilariously—relatable to the occasionally bizarre.
