With eight billion people in the world, why is it so hard to meet and make new friends?
ย 
Navigating the world of adult friendships can be a real challenge when everyone is busy, overwhelmed, or too often too far away. Here to help are Jenn Bane and Trin Garritano, the duo behind the cult favorite podcast Friendshipping. Insightful, empathetic, and just a touch irreverent, Jenn and Trin give readers the tools they need to make new friends and revitalize the quality of existing friendships. The book covers it all:


  • Meeting new people

  • Mastering the art of small talk

  • Deciphering the levels of friendship in the workplace

  • Making the first friend move, plus how to give a non-creepy compliment

Youโ€™ll also learn why itโ€™s important to use the same IRL etiquette when making friends online; how to decide if a friendship is toxic and know when itโ€™s time to move on; and most important, how to be a better friend, to yourself and others.

Jenn Bane (she/her) is a comedy writer, editor, producer, and cohost of the podcast Friendshipping, a feel-good advice show about making friends. She lives in Chicago with her husband and dog and finds it really difficult to write in the third person.
Trin Garritano (she/they) is a game dev, writer of tabletop games, and the other half of the Friendshipping podcast. Sheโ€™d like to believe that she made all of her social mistakes so you donโ€™t have to.
Jean Wei is an illustrator and cartoonist whose clients include Airbnb, Google, Intercom, the Los Angeles Times,ย andย the New York Times. She lives in Pennsylvania.
