Wonderful! submitted by 21621031390949 on September 14, 2017, 7:24pm I love this book. The author tells the stories of her close friendships with women, starting as a young child and moving up to her mid-life. Each friend/relationship is told in one chapter. The author is apparently an emotional, introspective, needy, and outgoing woman, who is also a brilliant writer. Her prose is lush, detailed and evocative. Her relationships and insights will strike a chord with most female readers.
Really, women are so lucky to have such intimate relationships! Eat your heart out, guys.
