Well, gang, my book Modern Friendship came out one week ago. Thank you for all your messages, DMs, videos, and words of encouragement. Writing and publishing this book has been a dream come true.
And welcome, new readers! I’m so excited to have you here.
Here are some pics from my book release party last week. I wore a flowery dress with pockets which was a great decision all around. I tried to match my lipstick to the book’s title font color #girlboss
It was magical to have so many wonderful friends and colleagues in one place. I don’t throw parties, like, ever. So it was lovely to have so many of my favorite people in one room.
I kept thinking how much I wish I had this love around me when my dad died in 2021. It was in the middle of the pandemic and we were still weeks away from a vaccine. There were only four people at my dad’s funeral. We didn’t even get to share a meal afterwards. We all went home to process our heartbreak alone.
Feeling the warmth in that room last week was extremely healing for me. It gave me something I didn’t even know I needed so badly.
If you’ve purchased the book, kindly leave a review on Goodreads, Amazon or wherever you snagged it. My deepest thanks for taking the time to do this! Speaking of snagging the book, my publisher is giving away 25 print copies over on Goodreads.

I loved both chats we've had on Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship and so have my listeners. I can't wait for more of them to read Modern Friendship!
