Under no circumstances would I suggest the book Seventeen Things to do While Waiting for Mr. Right, by Reverend Marcy Ann Cheek, to a young bride-to-be or any young woman for that matter. It seemed to be more of a lecture than a leisurely read, which only makes sense considering the author is an elderly reverend living in a retirement home! I'm not even sure young women should take marital advice from someone who has been married and divorced twice herself.
