i loved this book, the ending made me a bit teary-eyed! i listened to this on audiobook (my first one!) and honestly see why their podcast is so popular. i loved the back and forth narration between the two. it made the friendship feel more tangible. there is some helpful information in here as well as a personal retelling of the ebbs and flows of their big friendship.
this makes me want to give a copy to all of my closest friends. i know that our friendships are something we'll have to work on, and i loved that the book touched on both the long distance and interracial aspect. i don't think that's talked about enough, and i think my friendships will be affected by both traits in the near future.
this is a great book both for avid readers and those who want to start reading more books! i'm going to recommend this to my friends. thank you to ann and aminatou for sharing their vulnerabilities with us. :)
