Challenges like…

…“No-Call Nancy,” “Gossip Gloria,” or “Brutally-Honest Betty.”

Ms. Zangara communicates to her audience using a style that is both relatable and relevant, “If you find yourself always begging forgiveness, while she’s free to say whatever she thinks, it’s time to ask yourself why you’re willing to keep playing by her lopsided rules.”

Often, when strains become too much, something fractures…and usually, if not handled properly, the friendship can suffer lasting negative effects.

“Surviving Female Friendships: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly offers amazing vignettes on women’s experiences with friends… My range of emotions went from amusing to intense… I enjoyed this book immensely.”
