Excellent read in a very conversational, personable style. Not a "you should do THIS" manual, but rather, "My husband and I tried this" collection including interviews with major therapists and even the Gottmans by the end. Topics included attitude, finances, sex, chore responsibility, and household clutter, with excellent and hard-investigated insights into each. This isn't some arm-chair thought on bolstering marriage after the game-changer of children; this is real insights from ground-level experience and talk with people who have made helping this situation their vocation in life.
