The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center by Rhaina Cohen
5.0
This book is so beautifully written, it made me all warm and fuzzy and is definitely worth a reread.
Unlike many self-help psych books that espouse the value of strong relationships, with the inevitable emphasis on romantic relationships, this book actively centers non-conventional, nuanced relationships that those involved often struggle to put a mainstream label on. Cohen also speaks to how all relationships, even traditional marriage-based relationships, would greatly benefit from a conscious dissection of values, expectations and a “pre-mortem” airing of concerns.
