This was a personally important read for me. It is a thoughtful heartfelt reminder of the need to give up a modicum of independence and comfort to find and hold on to good friends. Allen shares a lot of advice to give the reader confidence in the process. A helpful pick at 4/5 ⭐️.

A very biblically-focused book on forming friendships. I was hoping for a more research-based approach.

This was a great read on the topic of creating community. As an #introvert I find that many times I avoid people or the interactions, this book gives many reasons as to why finding your people and creating your village is valuable.
