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. What surprised me most about this book on the positive side was the way it is written in which, as is the collection of Dolly's advice in the Dear Dolly column in The Sunday Times Style, we can read the person's perspective and doubts about a certain subject and then the answer provided by Dolly. Sent pictures of various pages to my friends and I know I’ll be referring back to it at times of need.

She is a columnist for The Sunday Times Style and has also written for GQ, Red, Marie Claire and Grazia.i’ve loved dolly’s previous 2 books: her memoir everything i know about love and her fiction debut ghosts, so i’m looking forward to whatever she does next. Dolly has thoughtfully answered questions ranging from the painfully—and sometimes hilariously—relatable to the occasionally bizarre. It was as if I had crept down to the docks under cover of darkness and floated a message out in a bottle, imagining how it might be received. Next time you feel one of those further cracks of heartbreak, think of it as a strange sort of privilege. 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.

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.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 (UK) for Autobiography of the Year. even 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. 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. Feel bad giving this two stars because I know it’s more meant for people in their 30s and 40s not me. what I really loved in this was that her humor still shines through really well and I laughed out loud multiple times.

Dear Dolly is a heartfelt collection of Dolly Alderton's favourite questions from her Dear Dolly column. 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. 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. i definitely recommend it when you are in need of an uplifting, meaningful work exploring many topics in a light-hearted but impactful manner. From 2017 to 2020, she co-hosted the weekly pop-culture and current affairs podcast The High Low alongside journalist Pandora Sykes.I thought this was Dolly talking about her love life and friendship but turns at to be about her Agony aunt work. Their questions range from the painfully - and sometimes hilariously - relatable to the occasionally bizarre. this book is made up of collected advice from dolly's sunday times agony aunt column, and as expected, each response blends empathy, humour and emotionally intelligent wisdom in a way that is so quintessentially dolly: comforting, light and reminiscent of having a long coffee with an old friend. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. 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.
