Ebook About NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A TODAY SHOW #ReadWithJenna BOOK CLUB PICKAn insightful, hilarious, and compulsively readable novel about a complicated friendship between two women who are at two very different stages in life, from the bestselling author of Maine and Saints for All Occasions.Elisabeth, an accomplished journalist and new mother, is struggling to adjust to life in a small town after nearly twenty years in New York City. Alone in the house with her infant son all day (and awake with him much of the night), she feels uneasy, adrift. She neglects her work, losing untold hours to her Brooklyn moms' Facebook group, her "influencer" sister's Instagram feed, and text messages with the best friend she never sees anymore. Enter Sam, a senior at the local women's college, whom Elisabeth hires to babysit. Sam is struggling to decide between the path she's always planned on and a romantic entanglement that threatens her ambition. She's worried about student loan debt and what the future holds. In short order, they grow close. But when Sam finds an unlikely kindred spirit in Elisabeth's father-in-law, the true differences between the women's lives become starkly revealed and a betrayal has devastating consequences.A masterful exploration of motherhood, power dynamics, and privilege in its many forms, Friends and Strangers reveals how a single year can shape the course of a life.Book Friends and Strangers: A novel Review :
This is a 400-page story about Elisabeth and Sam. Elisabeth is a published author in her 30s who has moved to a college town where her in-laws live. Her husband is pursuing an invention idea, and she is supposed to be working on her third book, while caring for their infant son. While Elisabeth has met the other women on her street, and is even in a book club with them, she doesn’t want to pursue a friendship with any of them. Instead, she regularly communicates with her best friend back in Brooklyn, and constantly reads the posts in an online mother’s group.Sam is a senior at a women’s college in the town Elisabeth moved to, and is trying to focus on both her studies and her boyfriend in London. She is from the middle-class, while most of the young women in her dorm are from upper-class homes. This helps Sam to notice the imbalances between the classes, and makes her more keenly aware of the struggles of the immigrant women who work in the food service department at her college. She works along with them at times, as a campus job, and considers them her friends, as she does many of the upper-class girls in her dorm. Her British boyfriend is a self-employed tour guide in his 30s, who is pushing her to get married when she finishes school.After seeing a job notice on a school bulletin board posted by Elisabeth, Sam goes to interview at Elisabeth's house. She gets the job and not only becomes Elisabeth’s babysitter, but also Elisabeth’s friend and confident. This friendship ends up both helping and hindering the two women in various ways, but there are no “devastating consequences” due to a betrayal, as the book’s description states. Thus, do not expect some tragic incident in this story. Simply expect lots of talk about friendship, college roommates, money issues, employment, pregnancies, IVF procedures, mommy depression, class differences, family problems with parents and a sister, both unhappy and happy childhood memories, happiness and unhappiness with men, kids and babies, etc.I really want to call this novel ”chick lit", but sometimes fear that’s a reductionist type of label. Yet I fear this book is nowhere near as important, in regards to friendship and social issues, as it appears to want to be. In fact, at times it seems like the type of story that is trying to “educate” the reader on topics, as opposed to the topics coming up in conversations and thoughts in a more natural way. There are lots of conversations about trivial matters that easily could have been cut from the novel, too, with no loss whatsoever to the reader. In addition, the epilogue raises more questions than provides answers and insight. All in all, a somewhat insightful story about modern young women, but not really anything to write home about. A review is all I could write about this book. Well call me Karen because today I have time and I want to speak to the publisher! I bought this because a book of the month club recommended it and like others was disappointed! I have time because you know why?!? I want people to save themselves from wasting their time reading this book! Scrolling through Facebook is more entertaining!! Someone paid for reviews-someone knows someone to get this published because this shouldn’t have been sent to print! Someone just wrote out some boring day to day nonsense and then just decided to stop because it’s a book right it needs to have an end? This book was painful I would have given two stars if there was some slap you in the face last line at the end but no this was a long drawn out story of ordinary people with no out of the ordinary life stories being told! I said what I said! If you’re going to publish something make it worth reading and more than ordinary! I will donate this book but leave my review in the cover for anyone who wants to bother picking it up-it will be the only thing that’s worth reading. I’m sorry I’m some stranger writing this but consider me a friend when I say you’re time is more precious than wasting it reading this! You’re welcome!
