No one writes about the complexities of female friendship the way Megan Abbott can. In Give Me Your Hand, she raises the stakes once again. Kit and Diane were unlikely friends back in high school chemistry class. But they haven't seen each other in years, and when Diane shows up at Kit's lab, vying for the job that Kit is dying for, her presence sets off a course of action neither one of them could have foreseen. Smart, twisty, penetrating — I literally could not put this book down.
