Radio Silence is a wonderful book about an unlikely pair of friends and their journey through finding out what they want to do with their lives, which might not be what their parents and schools would think. The book is gorgeously written, and gives a great insight to a teenage girls brain as she tries to navigate friendships and relations as she becomes an adult. However, not all friendships are easy, and some of the best ones take a lot of work. This book shows that quite well, friendships don't just happen, you often have to work for them.
