Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person


Book Description

A collection of essays extended from The New York Times' most-read article of 2016. Anyone we might marry could, of course, be a little bit wrong for us. We don’t expect bliss every day. The fault isn’t entirely our own; it has to do with the devilish truth that anyone we’re liable to meet is going to be rather wrong, in some fascinating way or another, because this is simply what all humans happen to be – including, sadly, ourselves. This collection of essays proposes that we don’t need perfection to be happy. So long as we enter our relationships in the right spirit, we have every chance of coping well enough with, and even delighting in, the inevitable and distinctive wrongness that lies in ourselves and our beloveds.

He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.

Rules get shattered. Love gets ugly.

Though excited to finally get to know her sister much better, she finds her own mental issues with anger and depression reaching a boiling point not only as Percy's parole hearing date on the other side of the country approaches, but also as Clia's irreparably damaged, slowly deteriorating mental health state unravels before her very own matching eyes...
