Friendship can be complicated, and, just like any relationship, it takes work to maintain those close friendships. I enjoyed the authors' combination of thoughtful research and personal stories that highlight the importance of making and keeping close friends who help you grow, stick around for the hard stuff, and celebrate your victories. They'll be the first to say it’s not easy—while the two share joyful moments in their friendship journey here, they share plenty of messy moments and hard conversations as well—but it's possible, and it’s worth it.
