Everything I Know About Love

von Dolly Alderton

Format:Hardcover

New York Times Bestseller"There is no writer quite like Dolly Alderton working today and very soon the world will know it.” —Lisa Taddeo, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women“Dolly Alderton has always been a sparkling Roman candle of talent. She is funny, smart, and explosively engaged in the wonders and weirdness of the world. But what makes this memoir more than mere entertainment is the mature and sophisticated evolution that Alderton describes in these pages. It’s a beautifully told journey and a thoughtful, important book. I loved it.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and City of GirlsThe wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking internationally bestselling memoir about growing up, growing older, and learning to navigate friendships, jobs, loss, and love along the rideWhen it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, journalist and former Sunday Times columnist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, realizing that Ivan from the corner shop might just be the only reliable man in her life, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough.Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age—making you want to pick up the phone and tell your best friends all about it. Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true, Everything I Know About Love is about the struggles of early adulthood in all its terrifying and hopeful uncertainty.

Wunderschön - hab gelacht, geweint alles

LeniRezension von Leni

Wenn man die Autorin nicht kennt, und nicht aus ihrer Generation stammt, halte ich das Buch für uninteressant. Für mich waren auch die Kapitel zu durcheinander und sehr sprunghaft, sodass ich nach ca. 100 Seiten das Interesse verlor und das Lesen abgebrochen habe.

Rezension von

Anfangs war ich mir nicht ganz sicher, ob Dolly Alderton mir sympathisch ist und ich hätte das Buch fast abgebrochen, aber manchmal lohnt es sich eben doch, dran zu bleiben. Ich wurde dann doch mit Dolly warm und fand ihren Blick auf das Leben, die Liebe und vor allem Freundschaft doch sehr interessant und erfrischend. Und ich hab endlich mal wieder ein Buch in exakt einer Woche gelesen. Vier Sterne von Herzen.

kinda boring

lea rotheRezension von lea rothe

I was so looking forward to reading this book after all the hype and the great reviews and was so disappointed. I thought it’d be a fun and thoughtful read but even though the book was easy to read, it felt so superficial. It almost felt like a book someone wrote because they had to. I was hoping on some insights or feeling like I learned something once I finished reading it, but all I can say is that maybe she should have waited ten years before writing this.
