Other friends have come, got boyfriends and gone.

So what? Tosh and Lou have each other. They’ll never be like the other girls. They won’t sit in a narrative someone else thought up.

This is love. This is enough.

Scenes with Girls is a love story, but not the kind you might expect. Tosh and Lou, 20-something best friends and housemates, are inseparably devoted to each other. Together, they navigate a world filled with romantic ideals and sexual expectations, all while remaining fiercely determined to carve out their own path-even if it means stumbling along the way and sometimes hurting themselves and others in the process.

Unfiltered, brazenly funny and often uncomfortably flawed, Battye has written a delightfully sharp study of millennial sexual politics and all-encompassing female friendships. Broad City meets Fleabag, with hints of a much grittier Sex and the City, Scenes with Girls will particularly resonate with those still navigating the messy realities of sexual exploration and the complexities of sharehouse life.
