Our main character is Frances, a 21 year old student cum intern who lives rent free in a flat owned by her family and receives an allowance from her drunken father. She has a best friend, Bobbi, and we follow this pair through about 6 months. They meet Melissa, a photographer and her actor husband Nick. These two quickly become embroiled in Frances & Bobbi's lives. The title implies that there are conversations between friends. As the book progressed I became increasingly convinced that what Frances really needed were some friends, rather than the echo chamber she lives in. 3.5 or maybe even 4/5 it is incredible how much I enjoyed this book, despite how self-absorbed, stewing in her own self-pity, and absolutely TERRIBLE AT COMMUNICATION the main character could be! but also so relatable and she understands me? some of this felt so obnoxiously pretentious that i hated it, and some of it was so pretentious that i loved it i did not expect to like this book at all. still a bit confused to be honest, but i really enjoyed the style. it felt intimate and vulnerable, but also! like hearing gossip about people i don't know, but also?! like i'm a fly on the wall of their lives and since i just read it, it felt like what the author of CMBYN /wanted/ their book to feel like sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

HTML:A sharply intelligent novel about friendship, lust, jealousy, and the unexpected complications of adulthood in the 21st century Frances is a cool-headed and darkly observant young woman, vaguely pursuing a career in writing while studying in Dublin. Her best friend and comrade-in-arms is the beautiful and endlessly self-possessed Bobbi. At a local poetry performance one night, Frances and Bobbi catch the eye of Melissa, a well-known photographer, and as the girls are then gradually drawn into Melissa's world, Frances is reluctantly impressed by the older woman's sophisticated home and tall, handsome husband, Nick. However amusing and ironic Frances and Nickâ??s flirtation seems at first, it gives way to a strange intimacy, and Francesâ??s friendship with Bobbi begins to fracture. As Frances tries to keep her life in check, her relationships increasingly resist her control: with Nick, with her difficult and unhappy father, and finally, terribly, with Bobbi. Desperate to reconcile her inner life to the desires and vulnerabilities of her body, Frances's intellectual certainties begin to yield to something new: a painful and disorienting way of living from moment to moment. Written with gem-like precision and marked by a sly sense of humor, Conversations with Friends is wonderfully alive to the pleasures and dangers of youth, and the messy edges of female friendship.
