，
Amazing book！ I always love a good book that will help my relationship with my husband improve。 I enjoyed reading this especially because it brought me back to my college days when I would have to read books like this for my major （Marriage and Family）。 I would highly recommend this book for any couple， married or not。 It is fantastic and has already improved my marriage when I didn’t even think it needed improving。

A thoroughly thought provoking book。 My partner and I committed to starting down this path。 We are yet to complete the dates but it really gets conversations flowing and makes difficult conversations seem easier。 Well worth trying it out for any forward thinking couple。

Як і все у Готтамна， це було дуже добре。 Книга написана максимально просто， доброзичливо і з повагою до читача。 На відміну віл Семи Принципів， вона має стати у нагоді не у випадку кризи， а в будь-який момент， коли люди вирішили стати ближчими， справді познайимитися - чи на початку стосунків， чи після десяти років шлюбу。
