"ONE OF MY TOP 10 FAVORITE BOOKS OF ALL TIME. I’ve never cried so much or laughed so much reading a single book. Love is exceptionally difficult. Life is exceptionally difficult. Thank you, thank you, thank you Harrison Scott Key for being vulnerable "

of
How to Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told:
"As a child of divorce, I’ve often wondered what it would have looked like if my parents had chosen to try again. This book gave me a glimpse into the painful, beautiful, messy, hopeful choice of rebuilding a marriage. "

“Every marriage is a partnership of two broken assholes with good intentions and varying degrees of ability to deliver.”
― How to Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told
― How to Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told
“The South is a strange place, one that can't be fit inside a movie, a place that dares you to simplify it, like a prime number, like a Bible story, like my father.”
― The World's Largest Man
― The World's Largest Man
“That is marriage, in the end: two of you, being you, warring against the worst parts of you, making space for the best to grow, and learning to see that some parts of your spouse are not your favorite, and letting those parts be anyway. Hating those parts is no grounds for divorce. The only thing worth divorcing, in most cases, is the hatred itself, and your inborn desire to shape the world to your will like some kind of Marvel villain.”
