Why read it?
1 author picked The Friendship Breakup as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved the themes it explores about the difficulties of finding and maintain friendships as you grow older and how sometimes you need to let go of people who made an impact in your life but may not fit into it anymore.
