Dream Girls by Hannah Goldstein
Helena and Ruthie have been best friends since high school, dreaming of lives filled with art, passion and romance. In their late twenties, those dreams look very different: Helena is hung up on her ex, while Ruthie hides her marital unhappiness behind elaborate cakes. A glamorous forest wedding offers a chance to reconnect, but finding their way back to each other will mean confronting who they have become. Inspired by A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Hannah Goldstein’s debut is a funny, heartfelt story of female friendship and unrealised dreams.
