Many excellent and appreciated points. though I don't agree 100% with every single point in the book. The author does a good job choosing categories that most couples struggle with and applicable prayers to go with each. Definitely a good book to go through. The nature of this book requires it to be generalizations, and your specific case on a few specific areas is to be expected.
