An honest account of women's interactions in life and friendships. Many topics are covered on what propels women to find fault in other women. This book demonstrates how some relationships can become toxic and discusses the signs along the way to these discoveries. There are indicators when to walk away, when situations are not healthy. True female friendships should not have to be work. The author points out a poignant statement - it is much better to have a handful of good intimate friends than to have many who are not true friends. It's not about being a perfect person, it's about being accepting of a whole person, flaws and all without having to be ridiculed or backstabbed. Friendship is about loyalty, no pretenses, no judgements,this is what the author is trying to portray. She makes a point about 'listening' to someone before bearing your soul to understand that person and their morals and values, to form a trust, for that is what friendship is about. I particularly like the bit about women dining out together and beware of the one who takes out her calculator to add up her own specific portion, as I have encountered this myself a few times in life and found those types of people were the ones for other reasons that followed to be also reserved somewhat in sharing true friendship.A good read!
