Valentine's Day Gift from Everything I Know About Love by Dolly Alderton
View this post on Instagram
Dolly Alderton’s humorous, self-deprecating and passionate memoir, Everything I Know About Love, won a National Book Award for autobiography in 2018—and for very good reasons. It’s a glittering account of a woman navigating early adulthood, albeit clumsily; think of it as Bridget Jones’ Diary, but, well, real. A relatable read for both the self-partnered and the happily in love about bad dates, good friends and—above all things—realizing that you’re enough.
Most of the time, books are actually better companions than people! Need more recommendations? We curated the best books from 2021 to add to your pile.
