Description:
Bess is cute and quirky, a struggling sound artist with a punk rock past and a penchant for pop philosophy. Maxine is a sleek, strapping journalist living the good life. Despite their different lifestyles, they’ve been best friends for 16 years. New Year's Day 2000, where the story opens, begins with a headache and a hangover. Bess finds herself facing 35, single, struggling to make ends meet and stuck with a bad case of existential blues. Meanwhile, Maxi has just landed a new job, a new home and a hot new man. But when the tables turn and everything starts to go right for Bess and wrong for Maxine, their relationship sours — fast. This witty, sexy debut novel about the complexities of female friendship is one to which women of all ages can relate.
