Asking For A Friend is the latest book by Toronto author Kerry Clare and is a character-driven story about the bond between two women who first meet in university. The story follows Jess and Clara for a few decades – through the ups, downs, life changes, loves and losses that impact their friendship.

Clare explores the pivotal female friendships that pull us through life’s challenges and shows us the power, joy, complexities, and enduring nature of these friendships. I loved how the author takes a raw and unabashed look at the different experiences we have as mothers, daughters, and girlfriends as she discusses important social topics that impact women today, including the right to choose, miscarriage, and the emotional, physical, and social toll of motherhood, making it an excellent choice for book club discussion.
