As someone on the cusp of turning 30, this book reached deep inside me and pulled out some much needed nostalgia and epiphanies about the last decade. Dolly is funny and smart, daring and brave, full of good advice and searing insights, and honest about her flaws in a way that is inspiring. You don’t have to be a fabulous blond party girl to get where she is coming from. You only need to be a woman who is living through their 20s and 30s to feel seen by this book. I’d venture to say women of all ages would feel seen, but I’m not in my further decades yet. Dolly’s story telling is vivid and romantic and so personal that you will hear her voice in your head even after you close the book. I loved it every minute of this memoir of sorts. I will be inhaling her next book asap! I highly recommend this book to one and all.
