When do you need to see a psychic, and when do you need to quit your job? What do you do when heartbreak makes you feel like a one-winged pigeon on the floor? And how can you be a friend to someone who is grieving, knowing that there is nothing you can really do? Bel and Luce don't claim to have all the answers, but if you've been there, they likely have, too. From navigating algorithmic angst and reimagining solitude as chic, not bleak, to trusting your gut and learning how to strengthen it, this is the book to hold onto when straddling online and real life has never felt so complicated. So sharp it'll make you wince, so honest that you might feel uncomfortable with what's reflecting back at you, and so funny you'll want to send it to your best friend, this book is a collage of cultural analysis, anecdotes, personal essays, poems and exchanges, interplayed like a conversation between friends. It's the bedside table essential for women who are feeling their way through life in search of validation.
