Is it overhyped, or did I just pick it up at the wrong time? I might get some backlash for this, but here are my thoughts on Everything I Know About Love.
I picked this book because it was all over Instagram, with people raving that it's a guiding light for lost 20-somethings. As someone who feels a bit lost in my 20s, I hoped to find some advice or comfort. But no—it didn't resonate with me. There were maybe two chapters I could relate to, but beyond that, nothing.
It could be that this book just isn't for readers like me. I can see how women in their 20s, struggling with dating, friendships, and careers, might find it more to their taste. For me, it felt less like a memoir and more like reading someone's personal journal.
Do I hate it? Absolutely not. This is one of those experiences where it was fun in the moment, like enjoying a bowl of ice cream, but later end up regret eating the pint. Don't expect any serious advice from this memoir. Sorry to all the fans!
