“Nisam ni znala koliko mi je taj zagrljaj bio potreban.
Postala je moja nova prijateljica.
Prijatelji vam mogu spasiti život.”
Dolly Alderton je britanska novinarka poznata po oštroumnim i duhovitim komentarima o životu, seksu i spojevima.
Sve što znam o ljubavi oda je ženskom prijateljstvu, odrastanju, zabavi, lošim i dobrim odlukama, lošim i dobrim dečkima, ali i sebi. Duhovito, zabavno i zanimljivo pisano, na trenutke me autorica čak i zavarala i imala sam osjećaj da čitam roman, a ne autobiografiju. Neke situacije podsjetile su me i na moje odrastanje i izazvale nostalgiju. Bilo je smijeha, ali i suza… Mislim da mi je ovo jedna od najdražih autobiografija, a Dolly Alderton se definitivno smjestila na popis najdražih autorica.
Osim u Sve što znam o ljubavi možete uživati i u fenomenalnim romanima Nestale ljubavi i Dobar materijal. A ja se sada bacam na gledanje serije jer mi nikada nije dosta Dolly i njezinih priča.

Everything I Know About Love – Dolly Alderton
Dolly Alderton is a British journalist known for her sharp and witty commentary on life, sex, and dating.
Everything I Know About Love is an ode to female friendship, growing up, having fun, bad and good decisions, bad and good boys, and even yourself. Witty, entertaining, and interestingly written, at times the author even fooled me and I felt like I was reading a novel and not an autobiography. Some situations reminded me of my own growing up and made me nostalgic. I laughed, but also cried… I think this is one of my favorite autobiographies, and Dolly Alderton is definitely on my list of favorite authors.
In addition to Everything I Know About Love, you can also enjoy the phenomenal novels Ghosts and Good Material. And now I’m going to start watching the series because I can never get enough of Dolly and her stories.
“When you’re looking for love and it seems like you might not ever find it, remember you probably have access to an abundance of it already, just not the romantic kind. This kind of love might not kiss you in the rain or propose marriage. But it will listen to you, inspire and restore you. It will hold you when you cry, celebrate when you’re happy, and sing All Saints with you when you’re drunk. You have so much to gain and learn from this kind of love. You can carry it with you forever. Keep it as close to you as you can.”
