Description

All Friends Are Necessary A Novel by Tomas Moniz is a tender and open-hearted novel about the power of friendship, community, and the families we create for ourselves. After a devastating loss, Efren "Chino" Flores struggles to put himself back out into the world, but finds solace in a coterie of new and old friends who form a protective web around him.

As Chino begins to date more men and women, and to open himself up again to love, his bonds with those around him grow both rich and profound. With gorgeous, heartrending detail, Tomas Moniz has created a striking mosaic of desire and belonging, an anthem to both queer and platonic love.

This novel is a powerful exploration of the human need for connection and community, and the ways in which we create our own families and support systems when life gets tough. With its tender, unexpected interactions, it's a worthwhile read for anyone looking for a story about love, loss, and the power of friendship.
