This is Not the Story you Think It is: A Season of Unlikely Happiness by Laura Munson. “I picked up this memoir after reading the author’s piece in the Modern Love column in the New York Times. After her husband tells her he doesn't love her anymore, rather than flying into a rage and throwing him out, she calmly says, ‘I don't buy it’ and patiently waits for him to work through his demons. I admire her patience and her commitment to her marriage and kids. That said, there are plenty of places in the book where she does not behave like a saint. She is neither plastic nor perfect - but she serves up little bits of wisdom.”
