Praise for Friendaholic: ‘A joyful read’
THE SUNDAY TIMES ‘Essential reading… admirably candid and
well-crafted’
THE GUARDIAN ‘(An)eloquent, disarmingly honest book’
DAILY MIRROR ‘A generous, companionable guide to a part of life
every bit as crucial – and as fraught – as romance or family.’
THE OBSERVER ‘Perceptive, compassionate and filled with relatable
insights into all that is beautiful about friendship, with its most
valuable point being that it should be about quality, rather than
quantity.’
THE DAILY MAIL ‘This book is brilliant.’ Jo Elvin ‘I’ve never read
a book about friendships before. This one really digs deep, is
bravely revealing and makes me reflect on my own friendship habits,
issues, and culture.’ Bernardine Evaristo ‘I really want to say
that reading Elizabeth Day feels like listening to a friend, but
it's complicated by the fact that I’m an actual friend who makes an
appearance in this book on friendship. But fuck it, it's true:
reading Elizabeth Day feels like listening to a friend. And reading
her on this strangely neglected theme is a revelation. Friendships
can mean as much, sometimes even more than family, and finally we
have a book that treats the subject with the seriousness it
deserves. And Day is the best possible guide: funny, moving,
helpful and true, Friendaholic deserves a massive audience.’
