good discussion topic
This book got me thinking and talking to my partner about some really deep and healthy subjects.
It is encouraging, has helpful tips for both men and women to improve on with out pulling you down for not already doing them.
Unlike some other books on marriage it makes you feel like that you are going to succeed instead of just saying try harder in tells you how to get help from God and encourages you to keep trying when it's hard, you will make it!
