Reading this book as a 16 year old was crazy. Exploring the deepmess of womxn friendship and how strong these friendships are tha  it impacts our entire life. Sometimes in way we could never imagine.  Although the book never explicitly states it,you can feel hints of homoerotic tension between the two and I love that.
