Like the couple in this book, I think Hornby and I should go to some sort of counseling. The spark is gone. At least on my part.

I needed a book to read in 2 hours during my commute and at a coffee shop because I was going to get to work early. This book is that long.
Otherwise, woof. Too-clever banter between a married couple who don’t love one another anymore. They don’t get divorced but they won’t ever be in love again… surely there are other pains in this life!

More of a novella, really. Probably one of my least favorites, from Hornby. Maybe I related to the characters less just because I don't have kids.

I've always wanted to write dialogue like Nick Hornby.
