Any avid fan of Grace and Frankie would want this companion book for an extra bit of laughs when awaiting the new and last series of Grace and Frankie.
We find the origins of how the show came to be, there are quizzes inside if you feel like getting your own Frankie or Grace on and you can find out which you are, and there are quotes for those who may need to remember why this is one of their favourite shows on Netflix right now.

This book is perfect for fans of the show, it follows the same fun and loving tone of the show. I loved all the quotable moments and that it even had a few quizzes and recipes. This would be a great gift or coffee table book.

I adored the entire passages, quotes, and short quizzes. I liked the entire show and watched all the seasons, so the entire book was a joy to encounter the characters so well presented in the series.
Each quote can be a short reflection on your own life and I think that the book is a nice gift for the fans of the show.

Thank you NetGalley, Girl Friday Productions and Flashpoint for a copy of Grace and Frankie: A Guide to Best-Friendship and Not Giving a Damn to review. Grace and Frankie is a joy to read as it celebrates the friendship between these two wonderful characters. Be forewarned, this will be a quick read but, guaranteed, this will be a book you will come back to when you want a laugh, advice or you are missing your friend. There are quizzes (I'm such a Frankie), recipes, tips, quotes from throughout the series and some gorgeous pictures of Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin. While this book is for fans of the show, I think it is the kind of book you and your friends would enjoy reading together so you can be inspired to create your next adventure. This book (and show) really celebrates how wonderful and uplifting a good friendship is and no quote says it better than the one on the back cover from Frankie: "You make me feel STRONG, Grace Hanson." May we all find our Grace and Frankie.

A huge thanks to Flashpoint for my e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Do you have that one friend that is The salty to your sweet, the crunchy to your smooth, the olives to your martini? (borrowed from book blurb) If you answered yes or no you will still love this delightful book.

This is a light book that you can finish on a day about friendship. The book is an ode to the show as it has Grace’s and Frankie’s recipes and quotes *smiley face emoji* and the icing on the cake is that you can tell which of the two women is more like you. This without a doubt is a wonderful book on how you can support the Grace or Frankie of your life through hard times, first dates , workplace drama and how to be a good friend. Highly recommend!

Everyone needs a Grace and Frankie in their life. This book is perfect whether you’ve seen the show or not. Terrific advice with laugh out loud situations. Interspersed with fun recipes. Now if you’ll excuse me I’m going to FaceTime my Frankie so we can watch the show again.

Perfect for die-hard fans of Grace and Frankie. Like me! I smiled the entire time I was reading this. It's a coffee table book and features many screenshots from the show. The recipes are awesome and it was fun reliving some of their iconic quotes. I will have to pick this one up when it is published. And I'll buy one for my Frankie.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book.

I've been a fan of 'Grace and Frankie' on Netflix since the first season, so when I was offered a copy of the series book in exchange for an honest review, I grabbed the opportunity. So long as I'm being honest, I may as well admit that I saw Jane Fonda in Barbarella when it first came out, and Lily Tomlin used to make me giggle when she appeared in Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. It's great to see these two brilliant actresses still at the top of their game, delivering an outstanding comedy script with terrific effect. The book, Grace and Frankie by Emilie Sandoz-Voyer, is the perfect companion to the series. It's witty, lovely to look at and exquisitely risqué. I especially liked the interactive sections, which are ideal for getting to know your female friends better. The recipes for drinks and snacks look as if they will be fun to try. A few longer passages of text introduce the characters and themes of the series, and there are lots of lovely pictures of Fonda and Tomlin in amazing clothes. I loved it.

I love the series "Grace and Frankie" and was so excited to be approved for this book.
And I was not disappointed. A wonderful collection of photographs; quizzes; tips and tricks and recipes. I really enjoyed it and its the type of book that you should purchase in hard copy and have on your coffee table for regular dips into.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this book

Thank you to NetGalley and Girl Friday Productions for an e-ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review. Just as I saw this book, I was finishing the series Grace & Frankie. My entire family says I AM Frankie, so this book was perfect. It would be a great gift for fans of the show, lifelong friends, friend of your soul and anyone who loved the show. It's packed with quizzes, info, and more, and it's such a fun read. This was an electronic copy, but I'm buying a hard copy for myself!

This is such a delightful read and the perfect companion for all of us fans of the series. Thank you to the publisher and to Netgalley for the opportunity. My review opinion is my own.

This is a charming book of friendship , good food and life advice. It has the humor and close friendship of Grace and Frankie that makes their show such a phenomenon. As a long time fan of the show I was delighted to read this for review. I highly recommend this book for advice on maintaining close women friendships, their trademark humor, respect for one another and joy of life in later years. All seniors will adore this books as a series companion. The Frankie food receipes in here are fun and I love the tips for friendship and great quotes from the show. A wonderful heartwarming lesson on maintaining good friendships through hard times, surviving loss and through it all having your best friend by your side. I highly recommend this wonderful book for all fans of the show . This is a book you will want to give as gifts to your friends. Very well done to the author.

This was a fun little guidebook to the show. It's full of quizzes (are you a Grace or are you a Frankie?), recipes, and anecdotes from the show. This would make a great gift for any fan of the show though I probably wouldn't recommend it to someone who either has not seen the show or is a more casual fan.

(Note - This is an uncorrected proof and I did find a few spelling errors but more than that several of the images were distracting by unfinished photoshop. It didn't take away from my enjoyment at all though.)

This is a funny and cute book for fans of the Grace and Frankie series. It has hilarious quotes from the series, quizzes to know if you're a Grace or a Frankie, and some recipes. This is a light book which I read in a day. However, from my point of view watching the series is funnier.

This would be a good present for a really big fan of Grace & Frankie.

Grace and Frankie are one of the very best best friendships I’ve seen on television, so it was no surprise this book was as funny, simple, and unique as their friendship.

Full of quotes, recipes, and reflections on friendship, this book is like a warm hug from an old friend. It was a quick read that had me chuckling through some of Grace and Frankie’s best moments on the show.

Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Such a funny book! Love this show and love this book! Highly recommend this read to any fan of the show Grace and Frankie!!

This was a cute friendship read. It makes me want to check out the show now, as I wasn’t familiar with it before reading the book. I took the quizzes and I’m a mix of both Grace and Frankie apparently. It’s got some funny recipes mingled in it too. Advance electronic review copy was provided by NetGalley, author Emilie Sandoz-Voyer, and the publisher.

Really cute book. It's not a book about the show as such but rather a friendship guide based on Grace and Frankie's relationship. There are some great photo's from the show and very funny and moving quotes. Definitely one for big fans.
