Found at the used book store. Intrigued me.

They met over their dogs. Gail Caldwell and Caroline Knapp (author of Drinking: A Love Story) became best friends, talking about everything from their love of books and their shared history of a struggle with alcohol to their relationships with men. Walking the woods of New England and rowing on the Charles River, these two private, self-reliant women created an attachment more profound than either of them could ever have foreseen. Then, several years into this remarkable connection, Knapp was diagnosed with cancer. With her signature exquisite prose, Caldwell mines the deepest levels of devotion, and courage in this gorgeous memoir about treasuring a best friend, and coming of age in midlife.

This was so good, but so sad. Very thought provoking. Passing on to my daughter.

Got this book from the Surprise Paperback Book Box. I'm trying to add some new authors to my reading so this one fits the bill. Looking forward to reading it. Thanks Heartthumper!
