What is the secret to successful relationships? I like that this book tells you that there is no such thing as a fairytale ending, or happiness ever after, but that successful relationships require work. And perhaps, in today's lingo, hacks to living together as happily as possible.
This book is full of personal anecdotes and advice from real people, which are great little tips that you might never have thought of. There are also many prompts to action on or think about, and sample words and phrases to use. It might seem silly that we need to be taught what to say, but as many of us know, but don't know how to do, communication is really important!
I found this book easy to read and each chapter was short and straight to the point. Even if you find the information might not work for you, it might be useful to someone else one day, like a friend who needs help. Even if your relationship is not failing, who knows what useful nuggets of information you might in this book that could make your relationship better?.
