SH**GED. Hitting the bars, necking drinks and necking strangers, stumbling home, one-night-stands, nightmare dates, thinking this one's alright, ghosting, tears, more drinking, living off late-night chips. MARRIED. Meeting 'the one', weekends away, moving in, declaring life-long love, stags and hens, the perfect wedding, the honeymoon period, getting through the hard bits together, starting a family. ANNOYED. Can you close the bathroom door if you're doing that? Sleepless nights, arguing about whose turn it is to change the baby's nappy, toys everywhere, only having two drinks, still being hungover, wondering when it all stopped being easy. Whether you're sh**ged, married, annoyed, or all of the above, Chris and Rosie Ramsey write hilariously and with honesty about the ups and downs of dating, relationships, arguing, parenting and everything in between.

Thoughts

I used to listen to the podcast that this book was born out of, and enjoyed it. I don’t listen to podcasts much anymore, but when I started reading this book, I realised I was going to have to listen to the audiobook version - partly because the formatting didn’t distinguish between Chris and Rosie’s paragraphs, but also because you just have to hear their excellent voices and the way they bounce off each other. I really liked the book, except the final section - I’m with Rosie that it’s a chapter that just wasn’t needed in the book really. But outside of that, it’s just the great, honest, open chat that you’d come to expect from this pair.
