Helpful Score: 1

Having experienced a blow-up of a long time friendship I was having a hard time getting over it. I read this book to try to get answers to help with my confusion over the whole ordeal. I found what I was looking for, and more. In The Friend Who Got Away twenty women wrote of their true life stories of friendships that blew-up, burned out, or faded away. I found a handful of stories that I could completely identify with and embrace, a couple that were totally revolting to me (consider yourself forewarned), and a few that were eye-opening. I was pleasantly surprised to read of women of other cultures tell their stories, in fact one in particular became my favorite. This book was worth my time and effort to read it and I would recommend it (with the 2 or 3 exceptions) for women who are seeking and taking steps towards healing. It's not the 'be-all' and 'end-all' of things relational, but it helped me.
