review 1: I checked this book out after seeing it come through in a holds cart where I work. After searching for months for books that elaborate on the challenges of marriage, especially in the first year, I was pleased to find this book. The essays are hilarious, and I found myself relating especially to the author of the first essay in this compilation. I laughed out loud in parts and cried in others. Highly recommend.
review 2: I found this collection of essays to be hilariously funny as well as incredibly insightful. Being newly married myself (and still planning a wedding--it's a long story), I could related to these tails of newly wedded non-bliss. Everyone puts so much focus on the wedding and the honeymoon, but they never tell you about the not so fun parts of ... morethat newly married period. Not that it's all bad, but there is going to be some adjustments, and that isn't always easy. It was nice to know I'm not the only new wife to freak out about small things like furniture arrangement or paint colors. And it's also nice to know that it's okay to get angry or frustrated, and it doesn't mean you've made a mistake or should get a divorce.I highly recommend this book for anyone who is newly married or engaged. (And probably for anyone who has been married for awhile as well.) The stories cover all ages from young first time brides to older third time wives. Everyone should be able to relate to the stories found here. less
