First audible is a winner

Everything I know about love by Dolly Alderton is my first audible and it’s such a winner. So relatable so funny so sincere. The truest voice of the Millennial. Couldn’t have thought for a better first audible

Loved it!

I was skeptical at the start that this book was going to be what I was hoping for. It was an honest lovable book that I know I will listen to again when I need cheering up. Thank you Dolly you're great!

Beautiful book, read beautifully by the author

I first read the hard copy book and loved it. Would highly recommend listening to the audiobook- it will only enhance and expand its impact. Dolly reads it beautifully - adding life and force to the words. I’ve listened to it multiple times. From my home in Australia, I’ve sent passages from the final
chapters to a friend who recently moved to the UK - reminding us both of the little moments that make up a lifelong friendship. I look forward to more from Dolly- thank you for your work! X
