Women's Best Friendships: Beyond Betty, Veronica, Thelma, and Louise explores the relationships between seven women and their best friends. This unique perspective is a wonderful opportunity to understand the depth and necessity of women's friendships. With heartfelt first-person accounts and insightful commentary from the author, this book examines three intertwining themes: feelings of competition, issues of dependence and independence, and knowing/understanding. This book sheds light on areas of tension among women, especially difficulties in communication, frustration about not being entirely let into a friend's life and thought processes, and the feeling that one friend may value the friendship more than the other. It also discusses women's struggles to maintain closeness over increased distances and the realization that one's friends are flawed, even as friends.
