Wonderful book with lots of great insights into marriage!  It explores potential problems, how to keep your marriage fresh and how to work together in day-to-day living.  Very well-written and intelligent!  I especially connected with the parts about arguing sensibly and how to balance being a parent and a wife or husband.  I also really appreciated the many cool date night ideas-I’ll be trying some soon!  The author stresses how friendship is important and I agree this is one of the most important aspects of a happy marriage.  I enjoyed learning how to figure out what “love language” my husband and I speak. This book also deals with special topics like overcoming the loss of a loved one and financial problems.  And it was interesting to find out that an unhappy marriage can actually affect your health!  I don’t think anyone can achieve the fairytale “happily ever after,” but this book will help you come close!
