I’ve always thought that the 50% divorce rate seemed too high. This book makes you wonder why it isn’t any higher.

A tale of healing and growth...of one man learning how to love. This one was totally character driven, slow at first, but ultimately pulling me in. Looking forward to watching the movie with William Hurt and Geena Davis!
