review 1: I'm not sure when I last finished a book cover to cover. This amazing book, I didn't miss a single word. As I read the final words of the last chapter I held back tears, sad that is was over. I began reading this book when our third daughter was about a week old. I needed to change for my husband, for my kids. I had seen this book so many times in bookstores and just was NOT ready to ask these hard questions but with a newborn sleeping next to me, I was ready, I had to be ready. We needed change. I can say (and I firmly believe my husband would agree) that this book has been a GAME CHANGER for us. Linda challenges wives to stop looking at our husbands and start looking at ourselves. What does God need to change in us. I have been more transparent with my amazing husband in... more the last 4 months then in the 8 years of our marriage and I have seen a softening in his heart toward me. As my pudgy 4 month old lays sleeping beside me tonight, I think of how I have changed as a wife since she was born. As she has learned to smile, joy has resurfaced in our marriage, as she has begun to giggle, we have learned to giggle together as husband and wife again, as she has learned to hold her head up on her own, I canknow hold my head up knowing that I am yielded to continually asking the hard questions of myself and allowing God to search me deeply. Our marriage will never be the same and for that I am forever grateful!
review 2: I read this as part of a bible study. It taught me to include God more in our marriage, and how to handle things , problems, etc by including God and asking Him for help and provided scripture to refer to in those particular times. Some of the chapters/issues are more relevant to me than others but I have a feeling as the years go by I could read this again and other parts will be relevant then. Definitely a good way to view marriage, by trying to see how we are to our husbands, how we support them, how we help them, or do we do the opposite ? A hard look in the mirror! less

Some thought provoking quotes, but I felt the content was lacking overall.

A great book for any wife. Newly married or seasoned so much to learn
