Synopsis
Firsthand advice to recently married women on how to survive the wedding, second thoughts, money issues, dealing with in-laws, and more. As a new generation of independent women increasingly find the transition to married life overwhelming, this book reassures women that anxiety and fear are, unfortunately, an expected part of the process of getting married at the end of the 1990s.

Publisher's Note
Written by a recent bride, this book dispels the fairy-tale ideals and calms the fears of a new generation of brides--women who treasure their independence and are more accustomed to single life than those of previous eras.

Industry reviews
Stark (Timeless Healing, LJ 5/15/96) has written a readable self-help guide for brides-to-be and newlyweds who are trying to adjust to this often anxiety-ridden passage in life and to solve the consequent identity crisis. Chapters touch on wedding postpartum, handling money squabbles, falling prey to stereotypes, timing pregnancies, and communication and criticism in a marriage. The text is interspersed with comments from the 50 (mostly white, middle-class) women whom Stark surveyed and interviewed. The result is a "feel good" book whose aim is to reassure newlyweds that their fears and anxieties are normal. Much of it reads like a woman's magazine article, offering somewhat simplistic advice: "breath deeply, and believe that your venture into love will succeed." But Stark does have a clear, readable style and a reassuring sincerity in drawing from her own life as well as others. A bibliography of about 14 books (mostly other self-help books) follows the text. Recommended for public libraries. Ann Babits Grice, East Brunswick P.L., NJ

I purchased this book on the recommendation of my best friend (a newlywed) when my boyfriend and I started preliminary discussions about "the future." A fiercely independent, practical, 25 year-old, I was looking for some insight into the feelings, worries, and expectations associated with early engagement and marriage. I was amazed by this book. Thank goodness for Marg Stark!
