The Office BFFs: Tales of The Office from Two Best Friends Who Were There

Jenna and Angela have a way about them that just bring pure joy when telling a story. I’ve laughed with their jokes and cried with their touching stories about what their friendship means to them.The book is perfect and brings me joy every time I read it.

I just got this book a few hours ago- am writing review based on book’s appearance alone as I have NOT had time to read (just got off work).Book appears to be brand new and that is what I ordered. Inside however on one of the first pages was a handwritten note, someone had given this book to a coworker for Christmas.But it also appears the book came autographed. (Cue surprised face I gave my husband when I opened it today.)So a pro/con situation and I would rate 4 stars except I haven’t read the book yet, and don’t feel that would be fair. I will cover the written note with some washi tape or something. The book itself is bigger than expected and overall excellent quality, I enjoy the podcast and can’t wait to begin reading this.

I am not even a whole chapter in but I can already tell you I love this book! The Office ladies podcast got my through multiple cross country road trips and I knew I had to get this book. It doesn’t disappoint. So many behind the scenes stories and pictures. Even if you weren’t necessarily a fan of Pam and Angela, if you like the Office you will like this book. A fun read!

Love the office and love the office ladies. A wonderful book for any super fan. Recieved it in perfect condition. Would recommend

Great quality, lots of amazing info.

The media could not be loaded.

 I love love love the office ladies podcast and and the office show. So excited to read this and I love the photos

This book is heftier than expected and such good quality! I don’t know why I was expecting regular paper but this is of coffee table book quality, with adorable color photos on just about every page. The cover of the book (under the dust sleeve) is super cute too!

Adored this.Okay, I’m a HUGE fan of The Office and The Office Ladies Podcast. Like, HUGE. My entire family loves The Office. My daughter is 15 has no boyfriend, but we’re already discussing recreating Jim and Pam’s wedding when she gets married.This book got me in the feels. Not just because I love the show so, so much, but because I get Jenna and Angela’s friendship. My best friend came from our years of being active duty Air Force. It’s a bond most people just cannot understand. When I listen to Jenna and Angela talk about their friendship, about the ups and downs, about how they can gab for hours, about the intense desire to be together again after The Office ended, I get it. I really, really get it. I cried when they talked about Jenna breaking her back in New York and Angela taking care of her, because when I was pregnant with my fourth child, I started bleeding and was put on bedrest WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS IN ANOTHER STATE. My best friend moved into my house with her 2 year old and took care of my 3 kids, her daughter, and me. She scolded me if I lifted a finger. She did everything. She was amazing in a time when I had no family around and no other options available to me, and SHE suggested. No, not just suggested it, she insisted.That was more than a decade ago now and we haven’t lived in the same state since 2010. We drifted because life is hard and complicated, but once we came back to each other, we’ve been closer than ever. She now lives in Florida, I live in Ohio, and we do our best to get together several times a year. We always go to her house for spring break. She always comes here for New Year’s Eve (because my birthday is January 3rd). We do a family vacation together as often as we can – with all 7 kids (I have four, she has three). From meeting in Hawaii to meeting in Gatlinburg for Thanksgiving to Disney World and even taking all those crazy kids sailing in the Virgin Islands. Our daughters, who I say have known one another since before they were born because she and I were pregnant at the same time (me with my third, her with her first) are now also best friends and our kids call each other cousins. Our husbands put up with us, but thankfully, like each other as well. More importantly, they understand what this relationship means to us.While our families getting together is very important to everyone, we try to do one girls’ trip every year because we don’t see each other as often as we would like. She’s gone with me to book conventions (I’m an introverted author who stresses about marketing herself and she’s super out-going, so it helps a lot!), we’ve traveled back to Charleston, SC where we met (and we got matching tattoos together), we’ve gone to the Dominican Republic, we’ve gone to New York and saw three plays in three nights, and we have so many more trips planned. Those weekends are always a tangle of talking, drinking, laughing, and memories, and I savor them.Anyway, I say all of this to point out that this book is aptly named. Yes, it’s about The Office, but it’s about something so much bigger, and I get it on all those levels. When you’re part of something amazing, you want the entire world to know. Jenna and Angela, I hope I get to meet you one day. I think we could be best friends.

My wife is a huge Office fan and loved the book and so based on my wife’s happiness and thus my happiness I give 5 stars!

This book gives amazing insight to the world of the beloved show, The Office. For those who listen to the Office Ladies Podcast, there are many jokes and references that listeners will gladly enjoy!

I am a huge Office fan an an avid listener of the Office Ladies podcast. This book brings all the funny quirky banter and meticulous detail/research of the podcast into a fun read/beautiful book with many exclusive pictures! If you love the podcast you won’t be disappointed!

This book is a binge read. It’s amazing, sweet, charming and HILARIOUS! These women are just stunning individuals and together make a power team that’s unstoppable. The book will make you cry, laugh, and somehow make you love the office even more (when I didn’t think that was even possible). 15/10.

First, this book is amazing and such amazing quality! Love it and haven’t been able to put it down! Second, it’s not signed but that’s because you had to purchase it through a specific bookstore NOT through amazon. I thought that was clarified but for those upset, it was never promised that the amazon books were going to be signed. Still an amazing book though!

This book was so heartwarming. I feel like Jenna and Angela could be my friends. It also had so many great stories about the production and the people in The Office. The pictures were AMAZING. I will reread again in the future. I loved it!

This book was light and informative about one of my favorite shows that’s a comfort within itself. Life is so hard right now and the world is insane, so I wanted to read something that wasn’t a text book or the news and this was perfect. Love the behind the scenes pics as well! Read it in 2 days!

If you are a fan of the Office Ladies podcast, or even just The Office show, this book is amazing! There are hundreds of behind the scenes photos of the cast and amazing stories from Jenna and Angela. I read through the book and looked at all the pictures, and then I purchased the audio book to hear the extra features they included there, like the audio clips from other cast members. Amazing gift for any The Office fan.

I have been wanting to purchase this book ever since it first came out! I finally treated myself and I am beyond obsessed with this book already. I love The Office, but I also would binge the Office Ladies Podcast at work which is where I first heard about the book. It is such an addicting read and this book makes you feel like you have a personal relationship with these wonderful ladies! Thank y’all so much for such an incredible read. Love from Texas

This book is full of amazing pictures, and is written in such a fun way as if Jenna and Angela are having a conversation about all the fun they had on and off set! It’s bigger and heavier than I expected, perfect for a coffee table book – it’s amazing quality. So happy I bought this!

This book is pure joy on every page As the ladies have referenced to Pam’s watercolor painting of the office as hope in a frame, this book is hope in a bound book. Every page is testament to what a loving, supportive adult friendship through growing, changing families and chaotic work schedules can look like, and it gives me hope that all of us can build similar friendships in our own lives. After all, Jenna & Angela didn’t even meet until their 30s, we can still make true solid friendships in adulthood! I truly think their friendship is one of the things that draws us into listen faithfully to the podcast every week, they feel like true authentic friends even to us listeners. I am so thankful to these ladies for putting their hearts, energy and time into creating this beautiful book for all of us! The pictures and insight into the office behind the scenes stories are absolutely priceless to fans of the show. Also, I’ve listened to the podcast on repeat, many reviewers here seem to have misunderstood, you had to pay more and order through a certain link to get a signed edition. Amazon does not sell signed books, those were available at Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, Premiere Collectibles, and some smaller local book stores, but are hard to find now. Their book tour dates are soon to be announced, I plan to have my book signed at their closest location to me if it works out.

As a huge fan of The Office and Jenna and Angela’s podcast, I had high expectations for this book. They crushed it! I loved learning even more about their lives and The Office. Any Office fan is going to love this book.

This book was so much fun to read. It gave insights from the show, things you’d never think of as a viewer watching, and lots of info about their personal lives and their friendship. Great book!

If you’re a fan of The office like I am you will enjoy this book. Watching reruns now is more fun with the behind the scenes stories Jenna and Angela tell.

I have enjoyed reading this and seeing all the wonderful photos included in this book. Angela and Jenna are so real and relatable and it comes through, not only in this book but in their podcast too. This book gives us the office ladies journey from becoming strangers to best friends and it lines up what was happening in their real lives while shooting different seasons of the Office. This is a MUST have for any Office Fan or anyone who enjoys reading about women supporting women in their journey throughout life. Buy it and enjoy!

If you are thinking about buying this book do it! I had this book in my save for later cart since I found out about it. I listen to the office ladies podcast and i thought i want the book but dont really need it bc what will it have that i dont already hear from the pod? Welp, i hate myself for waiting so long ! I love this book ! It’s the story of the journey of two best friends. I gave it to my bff to read even though she never watched the office. I don’t feel like you need to have watched the office to enjoy this book.

I’m a huge fan of The Office. I loved it when it first aired on NBC and I still love it and watch it today. This book put the biggest smile on my face. Angela and Jenna have a wonderful way of making you really appreciate all the work and LOVE that went into the show. Their close friendship is so sweet and they’re both so relatable. Highly recommend this book if you want to immediately be put in a good mood!

I have listened to the Office Ladies podcast from the first episode; so when I heard they were releasing the book I pre-ordered right away!! I was absolutely not disappointed. The book is beautiful and a bit bigger than I was expecting (that’s not a bad thing!). It’s filled with pictures from behind the scenes and wonderful info. I would also suggest listening to the audio book because they have a lot of special guests on it!!

I absolutely loved this book. It reads like two friends having a conversation which I thoroughly enjoyed. The Office is literally one of my all-time favorite shows and getting to read about behind-the-scenes happenings. It was a fun read!

This book is very similar to their podcast, a lot of the same stories word for word. However at the heart of the book is a friendship that has withstood the test of time. I really enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone that is a fan of the office and also a fan of true friendship.

I love all the pictures so much! I wish they would’ve let them put more in the book but I know A+J tried. I would totally buy another book with photos only!

For fans of The Office, this is a great behind the scenes look at the show. But you will also enjoy reading about the friendship between Jenna and Angela and how it helped them navigate this time in their lives.The book is also very attractive and chock full of photos. You’ll want to leave it on your coffee table.

Bought for a book club and really enjoyed it. So many photos – loved that about it!

A must read for Office fans! Lots of great behind the scenes stories

My daughter loves this!!

I absolutely loved Angela and Jenna’s book, Office BFFs! I am a big fan of the show The Office and their Office Ladies Podcast. Whenever I sat down to read the book, I felt like I was sitting and talking with friends. A definite must read! Well written with amazing photos!

If you are, or were, a fan of “The Office” as I am, you will really enjoy the inside stories related here.

Amazing book full of The Office background information! Heavy book with over 300 pages and 400 photographs. The font is a little hard to read. Also has a book jacket that I removed-strange texture. Bought it pre-sale so paid half price back in the winter. Great bargain!

I absolutely love these women! It’s clear they’re best friends, especially when you hear this as an audiobook. This book was informative and so much fun to listen to, especially for any fan of the office. I never particularly liked the character Angela on the show, but Angela Kinsey is SO vastly different! As you listen to stories about how she helped out Jenna through tough times is truly beautiful, spectacular ways, you just can’t help but think about how awesome the irl Angela is. I mean, most of us loved Pam, but I ended up loving Jenna even more. I have yet to hear their podcast but you can bet I’ll be starting soon. I’ve already started watching episodes of The Office in preparation! Bravo, ladies! You wrote a fabulous book!!

I think this a great book for people who enjoyed watching the Office and want a deeper dive. Angela and Jenna are fantastic story tellers and there are so many moments they share that make me want to binge watch the whole show again.

Last night, I finished reading this book. If you’re a fan of The Office, this book is definitely for you. I laughed, I cried, and I’m glad I’m not finished with their Office Ladies Podcast (which is also fantastic!) because I can’t get enough of these two best friends. Also, I listened to the audiobook while I read and looked at the pictures in the physical book. So advantage of the audiobook: getting to hear these hilarious ladies read their story (along with the voices of special guests – including a song by Creed Bratton!). Advantage of the physical book: all the behind the scenes pictures both from the show and their personal lives – amazing!I know this is a long post but this book made me so happy, I had to pass along the joy

I loved reading this book so much. I’m an avid listener to their weekly podcast “Office Ladies,” and I ever so slightly little worried the book would be a rehash of the same stories. But that was not the case! It has some of the same stories from the podcast, but there is SO much more detail in their storytelling and pictures. It really exceeded every expectation. I just loved it. It’s a true gem any office fan would love!!!

Lol I am buying books to help my insomnia and put me to sleep at night. This does not fit the bill! I finished it in three bedtimes—staying awake as late as 2 am. It was interesting and heartwarming to read about the personalities behind the actors playing The Office characters. These two ladies also provided some interesting accounts of how certain episodes were orchestrated. If you’re an Office fan or even if you’re not, this will keep you awake for hours. Beware!

It makes watching reruns of The Office even more enjoyable! If you like The Office, you will love reading this.

Loved “The Office” since the beginning! At first I had no patience with “Michael” and I kept thinking in reality, I’d smack him into another county! Eventually I came love his misuse of the English language and crack up! Still watch on Peacock!

This has lots of information outside the podcast. The pictures help tell the story.My wife has this in her face all the time.
