Dear Dolly: Collected Wisdom

Product Information

Without judgement, and with deep empathy informed by her own, much-chronicled adventures in love, friendship and dating, Dolly leads us by the hand through the various labyrinths of life, proving that a problem shared is truly a problem halved. I thought this was Dolly talking about her love life and friendship but turns at to be about her Agony aunt work. In this wonderful collection, she brings together her collected knowledge in one invaluable volume that will make you think, make you laugh, and help you confront any conundrum or crisis.

You will not feel like this for ever, I promise, and what will be left is awe that you could love someone so much. You're experiencing something that will soften and harden you, give you strength and allow you to be weak. i look forward to dipping in and out of it the next time i find myself wishing i had a millennial big sister to bring me back down to earth. For years, New York Times bestselling author Dolly Alderton has been sharing her wisdom, warmth, and wit with the diverse universe of fans who have turned to her "Dear Dolly" column seeking guidance on a host of life problems. Dolly has an incredible ability to put herself in another person's shoes, something that sometimes seems so easy, but can actually turn out to be quite difficult.

Because I was feeling something that other people had felt and therefore I wasn't, as I suspected, the loneliest and strangest woman in the world.

Dolly has thoughtfully answered questions ranging from the painfully--and sometimes hilariously--relatable to the occasionally bizarre.having loved dolly’s previous works, particularly ‘everything i know about love’ (which is an all time favourite of mine), i was excited to devour more of her words of wisdom. While none of the questions selected for this book was really compatible with my life right now, I still found reading her replies empathetic and friendly. While I was reading this book I felt like I was almost having a conversation with an older sister that I never had. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. if you just want something not to serious and something that feels like a gossip session with a friend; this would be an excellent choice.

kind of hoping she does some more tv producing because the tv adaptation of everything i know about love was great. Dolly’s first book ( everything I know about love)blew me away, her second fictional book ( Ghosts) was something I had to grind my way through it and this one is not great! i definitely recommend it when you are in need of an uplifting, meaningful work exploring many topics in a light-hearted but impactful manner. Alderton is Nora Ephron for the millennial generation' Elizabeth DaySince 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. She is a columnist for The Sunday Times Style and has also written for GQ, Red, Marie Claire and Grazia.

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. In my opinion, it is a short (230 pages) and easy read, but very informative and accessible, in which we can identify with many of the doubts mentioned. some of the excerpts applied to me today, some will apply to me in the future, some maybe never but i enjoyed reading each piece so much.

Her first book Everything I Know About Love became a top five Sunday Times bestseller in its first week of publication and won a National Book Award for Autobiography of the Year. Ebooks fulfilled through Glose cannot be printed, downloaded as PDF, or read in other digital readers (like Kindle or Nook).Dolly has thoughtfully answered questions ranging from the painfully—and sometimes hilariously—relatable to the occasionally bizarre. 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.
