Summary, etc As a society, there is a tendency to elevate romantic love. But what about friendships? Aren't they just as -- if not more -- important? So why is it hard to find the right words to express what these uniquely complex bonds mean to us? In this book, Elizabeth Day embarks on a journey to find out. Friendaholic unpacks the significance and evolution of friendship from the ancient wisdom of Cicero to the modern curse of ghosting. How and why do we make friends? Is friendship an antidote to loneliness? How should we deal with a frenemy? And is it ok to end a friendship that has gone awry? Friendaholic examines what makes a 'good' friend and asks us what kind of friend we want to be -- to each other but also to ourselves
