skybluepink77 on November 4, 2023 11:44 am Turtle Diary by Russell Hoban. Really good; but spoilt when they made it into a movie and made the friendship into a romance…
Griffen_07 on November 4, 2023 11:48 am The Vorkosagian Saga by Lois Bujold. This has the MC making friends with many people in between the adventures. The Honor Harrington Saga by Weber, military SF with many friendships. Kate Danials by Ilona Andrews has a number of them along with the main romance parings
