Top World Guild Awards Best Nonfiction Book of the Year What if our
neighbors were our friends? When Lynda MacGibbon moved from a small
city in eastern Canada to a high-rise apartment in Toronto, she
decided to follow Jesus' famous commandment to "love your neighbor"
a bit more literally. In the past, she would have looked first for
friends at her new job or her new church. This time, though, she
decided to look for friends among the strangers who shared her
apartment building-her actual neighbors in her new "vertical
neighborhood." In this charming and relatable memoir, MacGibbon
tells the story of the community that took shape as neighbors said
yes to weekly dinners and a writing group, Christmas morning brunch
and even a Bible study. It's a story of the simple, everyday risk
of reaching out with love to those around us, and of the beauty and
messiness of real human relationships. It's a story of the
risks-and rewards-of taking Jesus at his word.
