Rezensionen

Marriageology was such a fascinating read on marriage and long term relationships. Luscombe's writing was approachable with the perfect mix of scientific research, personal stories, and advice. I found myself nodding along so many times with her anecdotes regarding her own marriage history. She shares a wonderful perspective that is relatable yet also hopeful. Her ability to share the hardships of some of the biggest stumbling blocks of marriage was super accessible.

She points out the 6 major "fault lines" that can fracture a marriage and how to navigate them personally and as a couple. Like many non-fiction books, certain chapters stood out to me more and I especially connected with the commentary and research she shared in the parenting section, it was spot on. I also am so happy she talked about how helpful therapy can be, and not just at times of serious distress but also as a regular practice.

I learned so much from this book and I highly recommend it for anyone that is navigating a long term relationship. Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Note: It mostly discusses heterosexual relationships.… (mehr)

I've read several marriage/relationship type books over the last few years (including some that this book in turn refers to -- seems the author has done her due diligence), and this is definitely my favorite one. The author does a good job of melding high-level research with anecdotes and personal experience. Better yet, humor is in good supply and the book feels consice and to the point. Recommended for anyone who is or plans to be in a long-term relationship.
