Book That Is Helping My Marriage

I read the book around the time it was published in 2015. The author makes some valid points such as how women try to control things even after delegating a task, women are the ones who set the tone in a marriage and in the home. There were specific steps in the book that I could have adopted to be a better and more pleasant person to be around.

But overall, the book had an undertone I didn't care much for. To start off, the title of the book:
First, Kill All the Marriage Counselors: Modern-Day Secrets to Being Desired, Cherished, and Adored for Life. I have mixed feelings about a business or professional who advocates the annihilation of all competition, : ) even in jest or for dramatic effect. : ) Next, the terms "cherished" and "adored" are too archaic for my liking. They remind of a Regency romance...complete with the wayward heroine finally seeing the error of her ways.

The titles of other books by Laura Doyle are:
- The Surrendered Wife: A Practical Guide To Finding Intimacy, Passion and Peace (2001)
- The Surrendered Single: A Practical Guide to Attracting and Marrying the Man Who's Right for You (2002)
- The Empowered Wife: Six Surprising Secrets for Attracting Your Husband's Time, Attention, and Affection (2017)

The "Kill the marriage counselors" book is great for tips on how to achieve, create and maintain peace in your marriage. It is up to each woman to examine if the cost of arriving at that peace is worth it.

OP, I am not dissing the book. It is definitely worth a read and has some points that will help and are worth trying. It is up to the reader (or listener) to identify those points. But overall, I found it bordering on the notion of the "submitted wife" that can be found in certain religious groups and is actively and voluntarily practiced by even modern women.

P.S. I found a 2015 thread on the topic.
