Beyond Expectations: Finding Joy in Your Marriage

Summary: Not just another book about marriage - a must have
Review: As a fellow author, I read many books by people who have great marriages who try to speak to those who are struggling with a difficult marriage. My friend was going through a tough time and I picked up this book to read it before giving it to her. I knew within a few pages that this was no ordinary book. It was the journey of a woman who had been there -- is still there in some aspects -- and who counseled with the wisdom that only comes through experience. She offers hope through her own journey, but also offers practical counsel and applicable steps. I will recommend this book to any of my friends who are going through a tough patch in their marriage and who are trying to reclaim the joy they once experienced. This is a must-have book.

Summary: This is going to save marriages!!! Wonderful tools.
Review: I have read several books for wives and how they can help save their marriages and bring more joy to their marriage. This book has it all! You get so many tools out of the book to actually use. Nancy Meyer helps you to look at yourself and to start there. My husband already can see a difference in me and how I relate to him. I understand him SO MUCH more now! WOW!!! I needed this book 14 years ago. It is POWERFUL!

Summary: Beyond Expectations: Finding Joy In Your Marriage
Review: If you are married, planning on becoming married, or know someone who is, this book is a must-have. Beyond Expectations is written with raw honesty, from the heart of a woman who knows what she is talking about. This book is as real as it gets, from the anguish we share with the author to her triumphs. If you can read this book and feel nothing, you're made of stone. I myself am not easily moved when I read, but this book touched me, reached my heart like few books have. I learned volumes about myself, as a woman and a wife. I felt guided through the pages, never pushed; the author wasn't sharing her knowledge from a pulpit, but as a friend sitting beside me. And though I've read the book cover to cover, time and time again I find myself flipping back through the pages when I need inspiration again. I urge you to not only read Beyond Expectations: Finding Joy In Your Marriage, but to give it as THE gift to every new or up-and-coming bride. They will thank you. Trust me, they will.
