Reading Didion & Babitz by Lili Anolik and talking to my angels Brisa & Holly(wood) about it.

The three of us muse on whether we're more like Eve or Joan, what we've changed our minds on recently, and normal small talk stuff, like does free will even exist?

Did you know that Eve & Joan died 6 days apart? Something I learned when I finally finished the book, makes them sound like soulmates... Thank you to them for their life’s work, which is still today giving us something to chat about, and thank you to my angels, Brisa & Holly, for yapping with me always. What shall we read next month? What female voices and characters are you inspired by? Comment below xoxo

PS. Couldn’t, understandably, track down the letters in question at the Huntington Library archives, cos turns out I’m a member of the public and not an investigative journalist, but how cute are these ones I found back home in the attic from when I was 14? Before we had all cellphones. Friendship can be so romantic. Long live paper.
