Christie Tate is a Chicago-based author who grew up in Dallas. Her first memoir, Group, was published in October 2020, and was a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick. Her second memoir, B.F.F., will be published in February 2023.
In this interview, Christie and I discuss B.F.F., all of the book's great pre-publication press, why friendships were so hard for her, social media's impact on relationships, how the title and cover came about, how her family responded to this book, and much more.
