This anthology is quite funny and should definitely be required reading for newlyweds or couples going through a rough patch. No argument or fight is too absurd as this book clearly captures. Forty-six brave souls tell about their most absurd, infuriating fights, from stolen sandwiches, dirty houses, first kisses, and missing placentas, no stone goes un-turned. This book just proves that every couple has their disagreements, but time heals all... sometimes so does the absurdity. It is better to kiss and make up then it is to fume and divorce. Men and women tell their hilarious tales and in the process give time tested advice. Not all fights are about money, sex, or kids. Sometimes, it's the tiniest things that set us off and turn us into real monsters.
I felt that the quality of the stories were great, none were too long, and all were humorous. Written by bloggers, stay at home dads, grandparents, and other diverse groups, this book has something for everyone. I wish their had been a gay couple or two, but maybe on the next go around. This book made me wish I wasn't single... just so I could have someone to argue with and then laugh at the absurdity with. Sigh, someday.
I received this book for free from the editor in return for my honest, unbiased opinion.
