too many specific anecdotes about toxic friends and the pop culture/media reference and emphasis on how much she dreams she had what other people seem to have got old really fast. Not really any emotional tools/tips for meaningful friendships/connections - it was just like yeah be a nice person and do nice things for people. Very casual and conversational/podcast-y which is fine if that's what you're looking for. Maybe I just couldn't relate to the authors goals for friendship
