Breast Cancer Husband: How to Help Your Wife (and Yourself) during Diagnosis, Treatment and Beyond 20 reviews
Marc Silver
Rodale Books, 2004
book review for husbands
This is an interesting and informative book for husbands whose wives have been diagnosed with cancer. A lot of the book is common sense but it has informative passages that help with the awkward social situations that come up in conversations and with friends. It helps take some of the stigma sting out of answering stupid questions that people ask. I liked this book a lot and recommend it for ...

The Good Husband of Zebra Drive (No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency) 122 reviews
Alexander Mccall Smith
Anchor, 2008
Shaken up and put back together
If you have already read previous volumes in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series, you are familiar with the main characters: Precious Ramotswe, Grace Makutsi, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni, Charlie and the never-named "younger apprentice." This time around, though, everyone gets shaken up. Two of them leave their long-time occupations, only to return soon, but a bit wiser for their experience.

The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands 104 reviews
Laura Schlessinger
Harper Paperbacks, 2006
Look no further
Well, for the last years, men and women have been fed up with looking for this elusive and strange beast called "Happy marriage". There have been people telling they have seen it but, as Bigfoot or the Yeti, these reports come from strange lands or ancient times and most scholars tend to think that this creature is only a figment of our imagination. Sick and tired of trying to chase this ...

It's About Your Husband11 reviews
Lauren Lipton
5 Spot, 2006
Heart Warming and funny
This was one of the best books I've read this summer. I am looking forward to more books from Lauren Lipton. The heroine, Iris Hedge, was the type of woman that women can relate to. She's warm, funny and endearingly flawed. I highly recommend this book.

The Power of a Praying® Husband (Power of Praying)36 reviews
Stormie Omartian
Harvest House Publishers, 2007
A must for all men who want to see their wives succeed
Every Friday I take a sabbath morning. Each week I read a chapter of this book and pray for my wife. I have read the whole book once already. The succinct and timely wisdom contained in this book cannot be underestimated. I write my wife notes or send her emails or skypes each week to tell her what I am praying about.
Thank you Stormie for the courage and position to write this book.

Stormie Omartian
Harvest House Publishers, 2007
My Husband loves it!!!!
Originally I thought this book would be similar to the "The Power of a Praying Wife", but after realized that this format was much better because he does not like to read, and it is short and to the point.

My Husband's Affair Became the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me30 reviews
Anne Bercht
Trafford Publishing, 2004
Devastating Infidelity
My husband had an affair with a married woman while I was pregnant with his twins. I'm not sure it gets worse that that. This book has really helped me understand the process of healing after infidelity through the eyes of a woman that was strong then devastated and has been there. When I am struggling with the pain I think of this book and I know its OK it will pass.

Rachel Greenwald
Ballantine Books, 2004
Great book and not only for dating - for any personal goal
There are millions books with advice how to behave on a date and other relationship tips. Those book always left me puzzled: how should I use all those tips if I don't get any dates in the first place? I read this book a year a ago (my sister gave it to me on my 35th birthday) and was excited to finally learn many ways HOW TO MEET a guy. I conducted "packaging interviews" and have got very useful ...

Don'ts for Husbands1 review
Blanche Ebbutt
A&C Black, 2008
Timeless advice!
The pair of little books "Dont's for Wives/Dont's for Husbands" sheds an amazing light into the common sense approach to marriage that has worked through the ages. My husband and I got a kick out of them. Written in 1913, before Women's Sufferage had brought women the right to vote in some areas, the advice is remarkably well balanced and I'd say rivals Dr. Laura's in the areas of courtesy ...

An Ideal Husband (Dover Thrift Editions)15 reviews
Oscar Wilde
Dover Publications, 2001
Chiltern: "You prefer to be natural?"
Chevely: "Sometimes. But it is such a difficult pose to keep up."
Perhaps not so well known as "The Importance of Being Earnest," this has all the same banter, manners, and sharp-eyed look at the crumbling edge of the upper crust in Vistorian England. It pleases the attentive listener at many levels. Considered only as a stream of one-liners and clever quips, it delivers all you could ask for. ...

The Husband Trap: A Novel24 reviews
Tracy Anne Warren
Ivy Books, 2006
The Husband Trap
The first of a Trilogy, The Husband Trap is an amazing tale of twin switching. As historical romances go, this one was brilliant. Tracy Anne Warren was able to pull off twin-switiching flawlessly even though the ladies in question have completely different personalities. The characters are beautifully scripted and the love scenes are exceptional. I am an avid critic of historical romance. ...

My Husband Is Gay: A Woman's Survival Guide10 reviews
Carol Grever
Crossing Press, 2001
So grateful for this book.
I bought this book because my husband has decided he's gay. Because we first had a friendship many years ago, then we turned on the romance, we are surviving through this situation still living together, with our children. We are giving ourselves a time of transition to work it out. The kids are too young to hear the circumstances so they don't even suspect. But, I had so many questions in ...

Stuart Scott
Focus Publishing (MN), 2001
Real Help for Husbands
I can honestly say that this is one of the best books I have ever read in regard to godly living. The unique aspect of this volume is its practical `how to' approach to daily life. I especially appreciated the exercises in the appendix section. These exercises [and others scattered throughout the book] provide the sincere disciple with actual acts of righteousness that can be practiced. The ...
