I really enjoyed this book. It was informative and accessible and I really feel like I learned a lot about myself and my attachment style and how to work with it. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in attachment or platonic intimacy.

This is exactly the kind of book I was looking for when I first learned about attachment theory: how to apply attachment theory to platonic friendships. I will likely be returning to this periodically.
