I'm probably too old for this book. Having said that I didn't think it was well written or have any real substance.

This is such a great book/memoir and I laughed out loud at the 'made up' the scenarios she so aptly describes, would recommend to anyone in their 20s/30s wondering what the hell they are doing with their lives!

I listen to Dolly’s podcast ‘The High Low’, which I love, so I knew I’d love this book. Being exactly the same age as her, I could relate to so many of her cultural references (especially those about the emergence of the internet into our daily lives and the use of MSN messenger which became pretty obsessive for my peers and I!) and although this was something which really sold the book for me, I imagine they’ll resonate with people a few years younger and older than I, but will be lost on most others.

I enjoyed reading about Dolly’s foray into dating and her short lived relationships (there are too many of parallels with my own life, I’m loathe to admit!), but was a little disappointed with the numerous references to drugs. That being said, this is her story and she’s telling it exactly as it is.

Dolly has a fantastic writing style, sharing just enough detail to make you feel you’re living the experience with her, but not overdoing it so that the anecdotes are tedious. On the whole this was a thoroughly enjoyable read and one I’d highly recommend.
