I received a copy of this book courtesy of NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This book kept me on the edge of my seat. It was not like any other book I have read. The story line was creative and original, not predictable.
I enjoyed the author's writing style. The narrator was the husband, Jake. I enjoyed getting a man's point of view. I loved the marriage statistics and antidotes the author would add. For example, "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person."
Some readers may find the book unrealistic. What made it more believable for me was the fact that Jake keeps lamenting on what he should have done differently and where he went wrong. It is more understandable that at the start of their marriage they might make a quick decision thinking the other was in favor of it. An example of good intentions gone wrong.
