Everything I know about love by dolly alderton.
I’m halfway through the book and I’m really trying not to DNF anything this year, so I’m hoping it gets better. So far, though, I’m not enjoying it. It feels like a book written for very privileged people. I’m currently in university, and her experience is the complete opposite of what uni life looks like for most girls. Dolly basically spent her entire time in college drunk, sleeping with different men every weekend, hopping from city to city, and passing out in the streets.
Since it’s a memoir, I think you’d have to be in a very privileged position in society to relate to her story. It also makes journalism seem like an easy career .she barely studies, never seems to struggle academically, yet graduates on time. And somehow, despite constantly being blackout drunk, she’s never assaulted or seriously harmed. That part especially feels unrealistic and disconnected from reality for many women.And she is a very jealous friend . Doesn't want to see her best friend in a relationship because she can't seem to keep a man .
