Almost every day it seems that our world becomes more fractured, more digital, and more chaotic. Sheila Liming has the answer: we need to hang out more. Starting with the assumption that play is to children as hanging out is to adults, Liming makes a brilliant case for the necessity of unstructured social time as a key element of our cultural vitality. The book asks questions like what is hanging out? why is it important? why do we do it? how do we do it? and examines the various ways we hang out-in groups, online, at parties, at work.

People We Forgot After Vacation is a tender reflection on impermanence—a story about how connection blooms and fades in the spaces between escape and return. It captures the fragile magic of fleeting encounters: the people who made us feel infinite for a week, and the selves we became beside them. Through quiet, lyrical prose, it explores memory, distance, and the mercy of forgetting—how not every bond is meant to endure, and how the beauty of life often lies in its brevity. This is a meditation on nostalgia, belonging, and the human need to remember what was never meant to last.
