"Widowed Samantha Arias hasn't spoken to Holly Dunfee in forever. It's for the best. Samantha prefers to avoid conflict. The blisteringly honest Holly craves it. What they still have in common puts them both back on speed dial: a mutual love for Katie, their best friend of twenty-five years, now hospitalized with cancer and needing one little errand from her old college roomies. It's simple: travel cross-country together, steal her loathsome ex-husband's VW camper, find Katie's diabetic Great Pyrenees at a Utah rescue, and drive him back home to Wisconsin. If it'll make Katie happy, no favor is too big (one hundred pounds), too daunting (two thousand miles), or too illegal (ish), even when a boho D-list celebrity hitches a ride and drives the road trip in fresh directions. Samantha and Holly are following every new turn--toward second chances, unexpected romance, and self-discovery--and finally blowing the dust off the secret that broke their friendship. On the open road, they'll try to put it back together--for themselves, and especially for the love of Katie"--FantasticFiction.com.… (altro)

I really wanted to like this, but I just got incredibly bored. ( )

Is all the feels still a thing? This novel of friendship, too long held misunderstanding and cancer has it all. When Katie's remission is in unsure territory, she enlists her best friends Holly and Samantha to retrieve her dog Peanut from her ex. Trouble is, he is in California and Peanut is a Great Pyrenees that will have to be driven back to Wisconsin. A road trip involving two estranged college friends, a VW camper and D list celebrity ensues. This was a much more emotional packed book than I thought it would be and the characters were so well written, it was as if you were a part of the group. Don't nitpick too much about a couple little things and enjoy the trip. ( )

Enjoyed this book of friendship, second chances, and fighting Cancer. Believe it or not this a buddy road trip to retrieve a dog for a dying friend. The reader will laugh and cry while reading this book ( )

I loved this novel. The story of friends and how they went from being the closest of close to estranged to reconciled is beautiful - and funny! When Katie (out of cancer remission) sends Holly and Sam on the road to reclaim her dog, all the typical "road trip" vibes are pulled out. There's the hanger-on Sylvia who acts as buffer and pushes both women to face the pain that has never been resolved. And there are shamans and animals and love interests. Great book. ( )

What I did at my house when I got the call about my best friend's cancer: I inhaled through my nose, like my relaxation app told me to do when my body was deep into the whole fight-or-flight fiasco.
