About this audiobook
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • In this uproarious memoir “written with verve, insight, and humor” (Chicago Tribune, Editors’ Choice), a journalist chronicles her year-long quest to find BFFs after moving to a new city.
“Rachel Bertsche weaves together her engaging and often hilarious adventures in search of a new best friend with the latest research about the science of friendship.”—Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project
“[A] charming, funny chronicle of an ‘experiment in extreme friending.’”—People
When Rachel Bertsche first moves to Chicago, she’s thrilled to finally share a zip code, let alone an apartment, with her boyfriend. But shortly after getting married, Bertsche realizes that her new life is missing one thing: friends. Sure, she has plenty of BFFs—in New York and San Francisco and Boston and Washington, D.C. Still, in her adopted hometown, there’s no one to call at the last minute for girl talk over brunch or a reality-TV marathon over a bottle of wine. Taking matters into her own hands, Bertsche develops a plan: Meeting people everywhere from improv class to friend rental website, she’ll go on fifty-two friend-dates, one per week for a year, in hopes of meeting her new Best Friend Forever.
In MWF Seeking BFF, Bertsche uncovers the reality that no matter how great your love life is, you’ve gotta have friends.
