BRAND NEW But You Seemed So Happy by: Kimberly Harrington Memorable Memoirs

BRAND NEW Book of the Month Club book. This book was never read as I have recently switched over to a Kindle Reader due to my eye sight. As much as I LOVE my bound books, digital it is for anything in the future.

 Price is negotiable within reason, feel free to make an offer. But You Seemed So Happy is a time capsule of sorts. It’s about getting older and repeatedly dying on the hill of being wiser, only to discover you were never all that dumb to begin with. It’s an honest, intimate biography of a marriage, from its heady, idealistic, and easy beginnings to it slowly coming apart and finally to its evolution into something completely unexpected. As she probes what it means when everyone assumes you’re happy as long as you’re still married, Harrington skewers engagement photos, Gen X singularity, small-town busybodies, and the casual way we make life-altering decisions when we’re young. Ultimately, this moving and funny memoir in essays is a vulnerable and irreverent act of forgiveness—of ourselves, our partners, and the relationships that have run their course but will always hold profound and permanent meaning in our lives.
