“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.

About The Author

Dolly Alderton is an award-winning and bestselling author, screenwriter and journalist based in London. She is the author of two Sunday Times bestselling works of non-fiction: Everything I Know About Love, which won a National Book Award (UK) for Autobiography of the Year and was made into a BBC One TV Series, and Dear Dolly, a collection of her agony aunt columns from The Sunday Times Style magazine. She is also the author of two novels, Ghosts and Good Material, which were both instant Sunday Times bestsellers. She is a columnist for The Sunday Times Style and has also written for GQ, Red, Marie Claire and Grazia. She is the co-creator and former co-host of the beloved podcast The High Low.

Poignant, witty, comic, and self-deprecating. A laugh-out-loud, lightning quick journey through the years that will resonate with anyone who's ever been young and in love. ― Daily Express

Very, very, very funny. Don't hate me when I tell you that Everything I Know About Love is Sex And The City for millennials, because I mean it as high praise ― Red

I loved it so much, I wanted it to go on forever, Dolly Alderton is so gifted at making people care. A rare talent ― Marian Keyes

Alderton is an old soul – she has learned life lessons while not yet out of her twenties that many of us post-menopausal matrons are still struggling with. A wonderful writer, who will surely inspire a generation the way that Caitlin Moran did before her. ― Julie Burchill

I thought I knew a lot about love. Not as much as Dolly. Read as soon as possible. ― Sharon Horgan
Back Cover Copy

Award-winning journalist Dolly Alderton survived her twenties (just about) and in Everything I Know About Love, she gives an unflinching account of the bad dates and squalid flat-shares, the heartaches and humiliations, and most importantly, the unbreakable female friendships that helped her to hold it all together. Glittering with wit, heart and humour, this is a book to press into the hands of every woman who has ever been there or is about to find themselves taking that first step towards the rest of their lives.
