Will I love How to Stay Married?

About a third of the way into this book, I wanted to hurl it across the room. But I didn’t because Harrison Scott Key’s voice was too funny for me to stop reading. I’m glad I did because two-thirds of the way into this book, I found myself full of hope.

By the final third, I was ready to hurl it again, but I desperately wanted to find out what happened to these two strangers whose marriage seemed like the greatest tragicomedy I’d heard in a long time.

I’m glad I did.  

Key is an author and humorist who writes about his attempts to deal with his wife’s infidelity. Doing what he felt was impossible, he began searching for wisdom and understanding.
