Poignant, witty, comic, and
self-deprecating. A
laugh-out-loud,
lightning quick journey through the years that will
resonate with anyone who's ever been
young and
in love. * Daily Express *
Very, very, very funny. Don't hate me when I tell you that
Everything I Know About Love is
Sex And The City for millennials, because I mean it as
high praise * Red *
Alderton is an old soul - she has
learned life lessons while not yet out of her twenties that many of us post-menopausal matrons are still struggling with
. A wonderful writer, who will surely
inspire a generation the way that
Caitlin Moran did before her. * Julie Burchill *
Mesmerising, brilliant * Daily Telegraph *
I loved it so much, I wanted it to go on forever, Dolly Alderton is
so gifted at making people care. A
rare talent * Marian Keyes *
I thought I knew a lot about love. Not as much as Dolly. Read as soon as possible. * Sharon Horgan *
If
Nora Ephron is the cool aunt you wish you'd had,
Dolly Alderton is
your favourite cousin.
I loved it and I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't; it's a
genuine delight * Kristen Roupenian, author of Cat Person *
Witty and
insightful * Sunday Times Culture *
You will quite literally laugh and cry as Dolly crashes her way through her teens and twenties. This is about growing up and all the mess that comes with it. I loved it.
* The Pool *
Exquisite, hilarious, I loved every page. I was
dazzled by her
warmth and wisdom: Dolly has written an
extraordinary book that
all women will be able to
relate to * Emma Jane Unsworth *
Hilarious and moving. Alderton is
Nora Ephron for the millennial generation * Elizabeth Day *
Steeped in
furiously funny accounts of one-night stands, ill-advised late-night taxi journeys up the M1, grubby flat-shares and the beauty of female friendships, as Alderton
joyfully booze-cruises her way through her
twenties * Metro *
I loved its truth, its self awareness, humour and most of all, its heart spilling generosity. The power of female friendships is such great, uncharted territory, and just when you think it's going one (wonderful) way, it takes you somewhere infinitely more rugged, complicated and all the more affectingly tender. A joy. In short, it's a stone cold classic
* Sophie Dahl *
Funny, sexy and
clever, Dolly Alderton is never less than
dazzling on the travails of the human heart. She writes with breathtaking honesty about falling into lust and out of love, and
each chapter reads like those late night conversations with your best girlfriend that you never want to end * Clover Stroud *
A
sensitive and
funny account of
growing up millennial. * The Observer *
Will have you
hooked and nodding from the first page.
Hilarious and
moving * Grazia *
Alderton proves a
razor-sharp observer of the
shifting dynamics of
long term female friendship * Mail on Sunday *
If you're
ever feeling a tad down and need
to climb into bed with a book,
Emerald Street would prescribe
Heartburn by Nora Ephron...Fortunately, it now has
a millennial companion piece courtesy of writer and journalist, Dolly Alderton * Emerald Street *
Witty and
warm, this is ostensibly a memoir about romantic love - and it is
filled with plenty of stories about great and terrible men. But the most
touching parts were on
friendship, and how powerful and comforting the love of a good friend is * Stylist *
I
so recommend Dolly Alderton's millennial memoir, which takes you on an
uncomfortable journey through love and
anxiety, to
an unexpectedly happy ending. It's
just lovely * Eva Wiseman *
Weaving first-person
stories and lists with email parodies and recipes, it's
Nora Ephron for the Tinder generation * Financial Times *
Her
fun and
moving stories of
bad dates and
good friends melted my heart * Sunday Mirror *
Funny,
touching and
wholly delightful * The Bookseller *
Sure to
leave you smiling * Elle Magazine *
An
effervescent guide to millennial life * i *
Honest, funny and
touching * Evening Standard *
With
courageous honesty, Alderton documents
the highs and the lows - the sex, the drugs, the nightmare landlords, the heartaches and the
humiliations. Deeply funny, sometimes shocking, and
admirably open-hearted and optimistic * Daily Telegraph *
