Friends Like These

New York City. June, 1982. When eighteen year old Beth arrives in Manhattan for a prestigious journalism internship, everything feels brand new - and not always in a good way. A cockroach-infested sublet and a disaffected roommate are the least of her worries, and she soon finds herself caught up with her fellow interns - preppy Oliver, ruthless Dan, and ridiculously cool, beautiful, wild Edie.

Soon, Beth and Edie are best friends - the sort of heady, all-consuming best-friendship that's impossible to resist. But with the mercury rising and deceit mounting up, betrayal lies just around the corner. Who needs enemies ... when you have friends like these?

From bestselling, award-winning author Meg Rosoff comes a gritty, intoxicating, scorching summer book that's as irresistible and sharp as Sally Rooney's Conversations with Friends and Naoise Dolan's Exciting Times.
