GIVEAWAY CLOSED!
I reviewed the book "Put the Seat Down" {And Other Brilliant Insights for an Awesome First Year of Marriage} by Jess Maccallum
When I got married my dad told my soon to be hubby to get a notebook. In this mental notebook would include things that my dad would tell the men of the family how to "be good hubbies". Every time my hubby and I disagreed, my dad would say "You didn't read your notebook". I can only assume that this book contains some of the things that my dad told my hubby. Some of them are so funny. I laughed so hard I cried. The book suggests that the hubby should put the seat down, and never leave the toilet paper roll empty. He should also ask before he makes plans, and talk about her day first. I was laughing so hard because some people would consider this overkill. Let's face it, men are men. I would not have my hubby any other way. There are a lot of things in the book that my hubby does not do, (he drives 99% of the time, and he never opens the door for me), but he knows the kind of woman I am, and he does what I need him to do.
All in All, I would suggest this book for newly weds. or people that move in together. If there is a strong connection, then there will be one in the future as well. Even as a Wife's needs change. There are religious passages and at the end of each chapter there are bulleted items reminding men how to be awesome! I would even bet that if every engaged man read this book, then there would be less arguing the first year of marriage. I remember all the arguments we had over the small stuff! I rate this book 5 out of 5 :)
I also have a copy of the book to giveaway to one lucky reader! (great wedding/shower gift)
