Like Bridget Jones' Diary but all true-- a wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking coming-of-age memoir from the funny, sharp British journalist and podcast host, who Elizabeth Gilbert calls a sparkling Roman candle of talent.
The older you get, the more baggage you carry. When you date at twenty-five, everyone walks into the bar with a very neat, light carry-on. When you date from thirty onwards, get ready to meet someone absolutely brimming with history, complications and demands.
When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, writer Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, 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 memoir about navigating your twenties 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.
Perfect for fans of Nora Ephron and Caitlin Moran, this book is a hilarious and heartfelt look at the messiness of growing up:
- Female Friendship: A loving celebration of the ride-or-die girlfriends who get you through bad dates, terrible jobs, and the times you forget that you are enough.
- Relatable Humor: Dolly Alderton's wildly funny and painfully honest stories of getting drunk, getting dumped, and figuring it all out will have you laughing with recognition.
- Dating Disasters: From MSN Messenger flirtations to disastrous first dates, a sharp and witty look at the trials and triumphs of looking for love in all the wrong places.
- Humorous Memoir: More than just stories, this debut includes satirical observations, lists, and even recipes for when your heart (or head) is aching.
