    About this ebook

    Girls in their teens form friendships that are astonishingly intense, yet these relationships are often broken and reformed, filled with confidences and betrayals, loyalty and fickleness.

    In these deeply honest essays, seven women present humorous, poignant, and revealing accounts of their own adolescent friendships. Whether it’s the power of cliques, learning that beauty may come with a price, or experiencing the thrill of finding a soulmate, this powerful profile of teen girls reveals the complex and rewarding nature of friendship.
