Everything I Know About Love

good

Love it

As in the cover. Ordered as new and it arrived dirty and broken in at some parts.

Empecé a leer este libro sin ninguna expectativa y para el final, sentía que había recibido varias lecciones de una hermana mayor. Es muy común sentirnos un poco perdidas a lo largo de nuestra vida en diferentes aspectos de la misma (trabajo, relaciones, familia, etc), pero creo que leer algo como esto de vez en cuando, nos hace sentir un poco menos solas en esta crisis (la que normalmente te ataca en los 20's). Muy buen libro.

Çok beğendim, elimden bırakamadım. Yazarın diğer kitaplarını da okuyacağım.

I understand that some people don't see the point in the book, because there is no plot in the classical way. But that's what I LOVED about it. It is fun on the one hand and made me cry on the other hand, it has it's ups and downs - and that is just like life is! My personal life couldn't be more different to Dolly Aldertons but I just enjoyed all the stories and just felt so included like I would be part of her life. It's a memoir so don't expect a proper story but more like snippets of a life of someone in her twenties exploring herself, love, her friends, her life.

As a person in her late sixties, I was interested to know what life is like for young women. Phone-driven, of course, and possibly there’s more shagging, and more Class A drugs (and casual acceptance of them), but otherwise, not so different from the sixties and seventies. Of course, a lot depended on the kind of person you were. My life was pretty straight but for those who really got into the swinging sixties, Dolly’s life would be very familiar. What is lovely about this book is the theme of solid friendship with her female friends. And I loved the therapy parts where she really gets sorted, seeing, then leaving behind her destructive patterns and coming to a peaceful self-acceptance. There are parts that are funny, parts that are sad, and parts that are wise. It’s a great book, and Dolly herself sounds like a great person. Like me and many others, there’ll be sections you’ll want to highlight.

No issues with the product the book is just boring.
