Jim and Elizabeth Carroll. NAL, $15 trade paper (288p) ISBN 978-0-451-47677-7
The hosts of the reality TV series Marriage Boot Camp offer a blueprint for repairing strained marital relationships or preventing happy ones from ending up that way. They address common causes of marital strife—including money, sex (or the lack thereof), household responsibilities, parenting, and cheating—and offer concrete advice on successfully communicating with one’s spouse. Suggested discussion topics and helpful exercises guide couples into a comfortable space where problems can be resolved. The authors make it clear that they’ve faced their own rocky times, which will endear them to couples trying to find their own happy endings. (Jan.)
