A Wedding Anniversary and Marriage Matters

Happy Monday, everyone!   Today is a special day here because Mr. Right and I are celebrating our wedding anniversary.  You know him as Mr. Autumn, but I have decided to start calling him what he is.  That’s right.  I mean Mr. Right.

 

This is my favorite photo of us on that special day.

Since it’s our anniversary, let’s discuss Marriage Matters.   Berkley Books sent this adorable book to me that was written by Lexington resident Cynthia Ellingsen.  I mentioned it here before when I said I would be getting it for my mother-in-law for Mother’s Day.  Well, I finally got around to reading it myself, and it is very entertaining.

 

 

I know how so many of us are always looking for “beach reads”.  They are the books that take us away when we are relaxing at the beach while on vacation or even while sitting on our back porches.  They help us escape from our day to day mundane routines.  Well, if you have been on the search for that kind of book, Marriage Matters is it.  It’s available here.

It is the story of three family members.  We have the grandma, June who is a widow.  I know several Junes and had fun picturing them as this character.  Her daughter Kristine has been married for twenty-five years but is now unsure how she still feels about the union.  And then there is Chloe who is knee-deep in graduate school but has found herself attracted to one man but also having feelings for another.  Each woman has a very strong story line, and it’s easy to become emotionally attached to each character.  Now that I have finished, I highly recommend this book if you are looking for a nice, fresh, summer read that is thoroughly entertaining.

 

 

 

 

Take care.

 

Marriage Matters was sent to me at no charge, but the opinions are my own.
