Dear Dolly: On Love, Life and Friendship, the instant Sunday Times bestseller

Product Information

Since 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. From 2017 to 2020, she co-hosted the weekly pop-culture and current affairs podcast The High Low alongside journalist Pandora Sykes. 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. She is the author of the 2018 memoir Everything I Know About Love, the 2020 novel Ghosts and last year's Dear Dolly: On Love, Life and Friendship.

If you're looking for some encouragement and advice with issues in your life, then this meaningful book just might hit the spot. I devoured this book, as I have all her books because her writing style really connects home for me. They include breakups and body issues, families, friendships, dating, divorce, the pleasures and pitfalls of social media, sex, loneliness, longing, love and everything in between. 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.

I did find most of the questions and answers to be for those quite a bit younger than myself, but there are a few that pertain to Gen X readers. You're experiencing something that will soften and harden you, give you strength and allow you to be weak. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

There's nothing groundbreaking or new here, but it's refreshing to read answers that urge readers to be true to themselves. Next time you feel one of those further cracks of heartbreak, think of it as a strange sort of privilege. what I really loved in this was that her humor still shines through really well and I laughed out loud multiple times. She is also the author of two novels, Ghosts and Good Material , which were both instant Sunday Times bestsellers. She is the author of two Sunday Times bestselling works of non-fiction: Everything I Know About Love , which won a National Book Award (UK) for Autobiography of the Year and was made into a BBC One TV Series, and Dear Dolly , a collection of her agony aunt columns from The Sunday Times Style magazine.
