Our fourth annual book is all about Female Friendship. Now Available!
Who is By Your Side When Things Get Rough?
From lifelong bonds to bitter betrayals, this powerful anthology explores the complex, messy, and beautiful world of female friendship. Featuring poetry, essays, and short stories from diverse voices across the United States, England, and Ireland, Gal’s Guide Anthology: Female Friendship captures the joy, innocence, heartbreak, and resilience of these essential relationships.
This is the fourth anthology curated and published by Gal’s Guide Library, a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting voices, this collection celebrates the female connections that shape us.
