Hitched: The Go-Girl Guide to the First Year of Marriage

This book is fun to read and offers some useful advice. I would highly recommend this book when you are engaged. The author's writing style is joyful and refreshing.

Very enjoyable book. Being newly engaged, I enjoyed the pre-wedding/engagement sections. If you are looking for a serious book about relationships and marriages, this isn't the book for you. It's a fun, entertaining book.

My only complaint with this book is that the first couple chapters are about the engagement/wedding part. Other then that, I thought the book was great. It's mostly geared for couples who didn't live together beforehand. I'd been married 3 months when I read the book and it's helped alot with the transition. Before reading this book I didn't really understand our conflicts or some of my emotions, but this put them all into words. It was a very easy read and I'd recommend it to all new brides (or even before the wedding since there are those few first chapters....).

I enjoyed this book. It's well written and really hit the nail on the head on many subjects a new wife faces. Many of the issues she writes about are things that EVERY new married woman will have to deal with at one time or another. This book covers everything from the emotions you may feel after the wedding day to options of how to handle finances and investments. This is a fun book to read after you've been married a few months to a year.

A friend gave me a copy of Hitched when I got married last month, and I just finished reading it last night. I so enjoyed the book. It was the first guide to getting/being married that I could relate to. So many of the first-person accounts/magazines/reference books out there seemed to me to be so outmoded, conservative, or targeted to a suburban reader. Hitched is modern, urbane, sharp, and right on the mark. I laughed out loud reading the bits about wedding planning, and found particular value in the chapters that addressed logistical matters and other changes that take place during the first year of marriage. I even read some lines out loud to my new husband (whom I think secretly wanted to read the book himself!).I'm already looking forward to reading Julia Bourland's next book--good thing she's a step ahead of me on the curve!
