Book Launch + Conversation — Strange Girls

There is a resentment reserved for the former best friend you haven’t spoken to in a decade, the one who now has the publishing deal you wanted and the sensible husband you both used to mock. Ten years after their university friendship collapsed, Ava and Aliya are forced into the same room, facing the creative jealousy and the wreckage left behind by their feral bond.
