Everything I Know About Love

I enjoyed this series. There should be another one. Cast was good. Cinematography was good. Music was good. The final 15 minutes of episode 7 were really, really great, Maggie's mum's speech at the end was great. That's it. That's the review.

Dolly Alderton is the mistress of observation. I have seen this several times and still scratch my head. The four girls are so different but brazen, robust, vulnerable, excitable but so real. Emma Appleton as Maggy is so annoying but wonderful whilst Beth Powley as Birdie is so wonderful but annoying.

The tracks are wonderful choices... especially in episodes 5 and 6 where Stand on the Word from the Joubert Singers and Goodbye England from Laura Marling completely nail it. I felt I had been there and ok I had.... Greenwich Village or Camden or maybe Belsize Park. I so wanted to be there again. The most heart wrenching moment was the gentle lecture from mummy of Maggie played by Sophie Thompson. Verbal beauty and literal care exposes writer Dolly as one of our best writers. I'll stop waffling and let you watch it. If you don't like it, no worries you probably haven't been there.

Oh it was all of the things. I absolutely devoured it. As a fan of the book I knew it would resonate but good fecking god it was like a slap in the face which brought me right back to my early twenties. So raw. So honestly and so relatable. It's wonderful to finally acknowledge the importance of friends in a world obsessed with romantic love. Thank you for such a masterful and honest showcase of friendship.

Really enjoyed the adaptation of this much-loved memoir. Brought me right back to living in London in that era - the writing and soundtrack nailed it. Great production and performances. I really hope this gets renewed so we can see more of these characters.

It's so nice to watch a show of people in their early twenties trying figure life out. I watched the whole series in one sitting and just loved getting lost in the show! The acting is wonderful and just so full of heart! 100% recommend.
