Highly recommend the audiobook for this one. Nina is a delightful orator and it ends on a, quite literally, beautiful note.

This is a book full of interesting stories about friendship loosely tied together. Totenberg writes in a conversational way that draws the reader along.
In the downside, the narrative sometimes takes some awkward or abrupt turns. And while the friendship theme is present and interesting, it could have been developed more.
