I like your excerpt! It's snappy dialogue, but there's also mystery there. I'm looking forward to reading the whole book and getting some context.
Also, I think healthy, close, productive relationships between women is the new frontier for feminism in the media. Hopefully someday those will be as common as the lone Strong Female Character (TM) is now.
I've been trying to employ some McCarthy style economy to the dialogue, especially because "he said" and "she said" and "they said" starts getting so boring after a while. Sometimes I feel like it gets really confusing as to who's talking but we'll see.
What's weird though is that it feels like there were more female relationships back in the day than there are now. Or am I just crazy...?
