How Not to F*ck Up Your Marriage Too Bad is the frank, intimate and provocative follow-up to the 2018 Audible Original How Not to F*ck Up Your Kids Too Bad, exploring the equally thorny and confusing world of marriage.
In each episode author and columnist Stephen Marche goes on a journey to answer a question that everyone in a marriage or long term relationship faces at some point. They’re the very real problems he faces himself.
Should we schedule sex? How do we stop fighting? How do we live together? Can marriage survive death?

Story4 out of 5 stars 622
A Suitable Boy is Vikram Seth's epic love story set in India. Funny and tragic, with engaging, brilliantly observed characters, it is as close as you can get to Dickens for the twentieth century. The story unfolds through four middle class families: the Mehras, Kappoors, Khans, and Chatterjis. Lata Mehra, a university student, is under pressure from her mother to get married. But not to just anyone she happens to fall in love with.

Best to read the book before listening to this

I haven't read the book and hence did not understand the real flavour of this book. there are many characters and I couldn't understand the connection straight away . only after reading the book could I appreciate this dramatization version. the performance is really good and you will be able to enjoy it to the fullest only if you have a background to it.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 44
Lisa Ray is one of India's first supermodels. She's also an actor, a cancer survivor, a mother of twins through surrogacy. She is a woman who has lived many lives. And this is her story. Close to the Bone is an unflinching, deeply moving account of Lisa Ray's life, tracing her childhood in Canada as the biracial daughter of an Indian man and a Polish woman, her rise as a popular Bollywood star and her battle with a rare, incurable cancer. Transporting and atmospheric, it takes listeners across the world.

its an insight into a life of a free spirited vagabond...someone who has lived her on her own terms and the pros and cons of such a life. its a roller coaster journey and its surprising how much a person has seen and experienced in a short span of life. I was tempted to skip some parts but didn't do so and continued on. overall a decent read

Loved the book
Reviewed: 16-11-20
one of the finest books to read/hear. Kept me engrossed from start to finish. Michelle Obama's warmth, sincerity and compassion can be felt throughout the book. the message it delivers of diversity, believing in oneself, importance of education and daring to dream is consistent as we flip through its many chapters. its truly an inspiring story and one of the great insights into high profile American political world 🌎
