but even when we disagreed on certain topics, i appreciated how her words helped me form & understand my own views and opinions more. i learnt a lot from her & i admire her a lot.Įven the advice columns that weren’t relevant to me were engaging and insightful, and her moral perspectives and personal ethics very much aligned with my own. i truly trust her as such a grounded, reliable, self-aware & thoughtful source. Immediately i connected with dolly & fell into the rhythm of her writing, and i continue to grow more and more fond of this woman as i engage with more of her work. being a collection of her advice columns in the new york times, it was short & informative & wildly entertaining, encouraging and inspiring. 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. This collection was such a fun, refreshing change of pace to end the year with, being a quick one to fly through with its concise format & witty, heartfelt prose. 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. Without judgement, and with deep empathy informed by her own, much-chronicled adventures with love, friends, and dating, Dolly helps us navigate the labyrinths of life. They include breakups and body issues, families, relationships platonic and romantic, dating, divorce, the pleasures and pitfalls of social media, sex, loneliness, longing, love and everything in between.

Dolly has thoughtfully answered questions ranging from the painfully-and sometimes hilariously-relatable to the occasionally bizarre.
