TIKTOK BOOK AWARDS WINNER 2023

“Nearly everything I know about love, I've learnt from my long-term friendships with women.”

I know that love can be loud and jubilant. It can be dancing in the swampy mud and the pouring rain at a festival and shouting “YOU ARE AMAZING” over the band. It’s laughing until you wheeze. It’s walking along the street together on a Saturday night and feeling an entire city is yours.

I also know that love is a pretty quiet thing. It’s lying on the sofa together drinking coffee, talking about where you’re going to go that morning to drink more coffee. It’s folding down pages of books you think they’d find interesting.

I know that love happens under the splendour of fireworks and sunsets, but also happens when you’re lying on blow-up airbeds in a childhood bedroom, sitting in A&E or in the queue for a passport.

Everything I Know About Love is a celebration of our female friendships, of our messy years, and of growing up together. Glittering with wit, heart, and humour, it’s a book to share with every woman you’ve ever been lucky enough to call a friend.

A teenagers unedited review about Literature

the only memoir/ biography i’ve ever read before was I Am Malala so i didn’t expect to be interested in one written by someone who hadn’t been an activist or actor or politician (maybe she is i actually have no idea) So i was surprised but now understand that someone reflecting on just life became very comforting. The layout of the biography is very interesting and entertaining, the mile stones of becoming and adult and ones relationships and emotions. I found it very empowering as she talked about the social expections of people a woman and the pressure of completing certain mile stones before 30.

Goodbye Dolly

I felt my heart sink was I approached the end of this book. Dolly wrote this book in sense of humility and closeness, you feel like you’re right there by her side and she feels like a friend. I ravenously devoured this book, I couldn’t put it down

I’m glad to have read this at the age I am right now

This book while holidaying in Italy has become my travelling therapist. I definitely recommend you giving this a book a go, whether you can relate to it or not. It’s a spectacular read and definitely lives up to the praise that’s been given.
