Publisher's summary

From the hosts of hit podcast Call Your Girlfriend comes the bible on how to keep each other close.

A New York Times bestseller

Close friendships are the key to happiness - but we don't talk enough about what it takes to nurture them for the long haul.

Telling the story of their own ten-year, complex, loving friendship, Aminatou and Ann share hard-won wisdom with honesty, hilarity and compassion. They've weathered life-threatening health scares, long-distance living, and one unfortunate Thanksgiving dinner eaten in a parking lot. And they know: the most important part of a Big Friendship is investing in each other again and again.

This is a testament to the power of society's most underappreciated relationship and a compelling story of how it can survive, thrive and become a life-affirming bond.

touching, inspiring and reflective

It makes you think of your own friendships and relationships. I messaged my friends after this and caught up with them. This really made me want to nurture the friends I've got

an important read

I enjoyed this. as a fan of the podcast, I eagerly awaited it. As a woman in my late 40s, I'm happy this exists to normalize my friendship troubles. There seems to be a recognition lately of friendship (particularly female) as necessary...and affording it the care it so deserves. This had some low parts...some repetitive parts a and a few odd production choices...but the message was great, and I valued the candor. this i s 1 to give your girlfriends or book club... worth reading, then discussing amongst ourselves.
