This was one of the best marriage advise books I've read. I thought David Hawkins had some great analogies and very simple words of advice that I'd never heard or considered before. It seems most books of this kind are boring or repeat what other books have to say, but I felt his ideas were fresh & applied in the "real world".
I had a hard time staying interested in this book, so I moved onto another one. I’ve got lots of books in improving marriages. This one was given to me. Very glad I didn’t spend money on it.
