"Good Material" is Dolly Alderton's latest release and like every book she has written, it won me over immediately. The story takes the reader through the various stages of the protagonists's post-breakup journey, with moments of sympathy and a desire to see him pull himself together. Although I didn't always like Andy, it was fun to follow his journey. It was interesting to see how Dolly portrayed the male perspective. Nevertheless, my highlight was when we got an insight into Jen's perspective, the ex-girlfriend. Everything about this book was entertaining and hilarious. Overall, it's a fantastic read!

Your personal warm hug from Dolly

If you loved the „dear Dolly“ book, you‘ll love this one. This book is about love (like all of Dolly’s books), but not only about romantic love to your SO, but to your friends, to your family and to yourself. This book has two parts, at first your read from a male perspective and it‘s mostly heartbreaking, but also hilarious at times :) all the little jokes and remarks about male friendships, the stand-up comedy scene and modern culture were too good And right at the end the perspective changes to a female one and it felt like an honest chat with a dear (girl-)friend that knows you since ages and just gets you. And again, this part too was about love - to your girlfriends, family, yourself and your own path in life. I loves this book! It took some time for me to get used to the pace of it, but it was worth it. A book, that is as heartwarming as it is sad at times. Made me very grateful for my own friends and loved ones
