My friends were getting married. I didn't know what to get them as they had lived together for years and of course had all of the crockery etc. that they needed from house-warming gifts. I figured everyone would be buying pretty frames and the like, so went for something different. This book is hilarious and full of modern advice and tips and tricks for keeping your relationship strong. I'd advise anyone who shares a home with their partner buy it - makes a good read and the book is cool - rounded corners!

Book arrived quickly and in great shape.
I gave it to my friend for an engagement gift but after having a better look through it after the first few chapters its a little condesending and not as light hearted as it starts.
The to be bride enjoyed it.

A fun and informative manual
31 Aug 2010
Format:Paperback
Getting married for most people is one of the most joyful and exciting milestones in their lives. The wedding, however, is one of the most stressful and time-consuming activities and it normally requires an enormous amount of work. Nonetheless, wedding is only the beginning of a long-term relationship between a man and a woman that will require a lot of care and work in its own right in order to be a successful one. Most of us have some vague notions of what this relationship may entail, but nonetheless it is good to have some second opinion from people who have gone through it before, as well as to compare notes from very different marriages from our own. And in case that you don't know many other married couples or just don't know what sorts of information to seek out, then a book like this one is a great handy resource.
The book is written in an accessible, straightforward manner. It doesn't waste much time on unnecessary background information, but goes straight to the main points it wants to make. The topics that it discusses are some of the most common one that married couples deal with in the first year or two of marriage - buying a house, getting used to living together, dealing with in-laws and two sets of friends and relatives, dealing with rings, weaving romance into the busy schedule, etc. The tips and suggestions are all very meaningful and insightful; I've learned a lot from reading this book and have come across information that I would have probably not come across otherwise.
One of my favorite aspects of this book are all the illustrations and charts. They are amusing and informative, and really serve to enhance the tips that are presented in the book. The book also contains several checklists that are very useful to have.
If you have just gotten married or are about to get married I would strongly recommend this book as a very fun and informative resource.

Good information, but hopefully most is common sense
18 Jun 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love these books, but I usually get them for my now husband because he is of the computer engineer mind and this format suits him well. I like this book because it has alot of good ideas in it, alot of good conversation starters and how to deal with situations involving the in-laws, which is an issue with us personally. However, my hope is that alot of the information presented in this book is common sense...but common sense isn't so common, so maybe I'm expecting too much. :)
