funny reflective slow-paced

3.0

This was well written, conversational, and funny. The best chapters are when she's describing how to be a good friend or discussing how friendships are relationships that need nurturing. I found it frustrating at times when she seemed to expect friends to read her mind.

 Sad as it is a commentary about my own personal life, I was really hoping this book would be a bit better at the "actually making friends" part. It's more about developing friendships once you have them, building on the author's own experiences. Her writing style and frame of reference really didn't click with me all the time, unfortunately.
