Lonely Crowds totally flips the script on the whole 'childhood friends know you best' myth. Ruth and Maria’s friendship is more obsession than comfort, and honestly, it gets super messy as they grow up. The real drama? Maria always calls the shots, and Ruth can’t seem to break free—even when Maria crosses some major lines. Are lifelong friendships always this risky, or is this just next-level toxic? #Entertainment #Books #LonelyCrowds
