My Thoughts:
I love the idea of this book. I appreciate books that build marriages and give practical advice for growing godly marriages. This book was full of thoughts, ideas and characteristics to help a marriage that might be struggling or might need refreshing.
I did have a hard time connecting fully with the characters and really getting interested in the story itself. It isn't where I am in my marriage and so it was difficult for me to engage with the story. The characters were not deep enough for me and I struggled to get a full sense of what they were feeling or wanting.
Kim O'Brien is a new author for me. I will have to try another one of her books to get a better feel for her writing style.
