3.11.2020 - Last Couple Standing

Last Couple Standing by Matthew Norman

Many thanks to NetGalley, Ballantine Publishing, and Matthew Norman for the opportunity to read this book - even if you may not agree with the premise, this was a very fun, engaging book.  4.5 stars!

Jessica and Mitch are part of the Core Four - a group of four couples who met in school and ended up all living close by.  Fast forward to when they are in their 40s and 3 of the 4 couples end up getting divorced.  Jessica and Mitch (last couple standing) get scared and try to see how to stave off divorce and stay married.  Late one night, they come up with a plan for a relaxed marriage.  And every plan must have rules so they come up with those too.  Ahh...but rules are meant to be broken and is this setting up a faster way to divorce?

Wonderfully written - you will laugh and cry at the same time as you watch these couples navigate their new single life in today's world.  Even though I'm certainly older than these couples, it was a fun escape read.
