Publisher's summary
National best seller: A hilarious and emotionally charged novel about a couple who embark on an open marriage-what could possibly go wrong?
Lucy and Owen, ambitious, thoroughly-therapized New Yorkers, have taken the plunge, trading in their crazy life in a cramped apartment for Beekman, a bucolic Hudson Valley exurb. They've got a 200-year-old house, an autistic son obsessed with the Titanic, and 17 chickens, at last count. It's the kind of paradise where stay-at-home moms team up to cook the school's "hot lunch", dads grill grass-fed burgers, and, as Lucy observes, "chopping kale has become a certain kind of American housewife's version of chopping wood".
When friends at a wine-soaked dinner party reveal they've made their marriage open, sensible Lucy balks. There's a part of her, though-the part that worries she's become too comfortable being invisible - that's intrigued. Why not try a short marital experiment? Six months, clear ground rules, zero questions asked. When an affair with a man in the city begins to seem more enticing than the happily-ever-after she's known for the past nine years, Lucy must decide what truly makes her happy: "Real life", or the "experiment"?

Low Morrison is not your average teen. You could blame her hippie parents or her looming height or her dreary, isolated hometown on an island in the Pacific Northwest. But whatever the reason, Low just doesn’t fit in - and neither does Freya, a once-famous social media influencer who now owns the pottery studio in town. After signing up for a class, Low quickly falls under Freya’s spell. And Freya, buoyed by Low’s adoration, is compelled to share her darkest secrets and deepest desires. Finally, both feel a sense of belonging...that is, until Jamie walks through the studio door.

When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn't think it's love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. 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.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

And he’s written a novel, but the manuscript he’s slaved over for years is currently hidden in his desk drawer while his father, an actual famous writer, just won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. His career, such that it is, involves mind-numbing corporate buzzwords....

Just when she thinks she's finally put her failed marriage behind her, it comes back to bite her in the ass...hard. Without warning, Charlotte finds herself staring down the barrel of a future she wouldn't (she would totally) wish on her worst enemy.

A funny look at middle age sex and marriage
Any additional comments?
A great and fresh premise for a novel: a married couple tries an open marriage for six months. At times laugh-out-loud funny with quirky, likable characters who have depth and a plot that's something new. A great, entertaining read.

really good read!
surprisingly good and could not stop listening to. So relatable in the world we live in today in regards to the marital arrangement. I would definitely recommend for a good listen to anyone interested in this particular topic. The synopsis does not do this book justice. Give it a listen. You won't regret the time you took to do so.

Great Book
Great take on an intriguing ideology. Storylines were woven together perfectly. Only a few audio-editorial misses, otherwise a good performance.

Great Audio Book
The narrator was excellent. Very engaging. Story line and character development was awesome. and the ending was great. Wish there were a part 2!

Great story! Great narration!
I rarely write a review and when I do I mention this because I am only compelled to write when the book was either really good or really horrible. This one was really good! When I first started it, I didn't think I was going to like it and I went to sometime else. I have a very low patience tolerance (just ask my family lol), and switch books when I get bored. I eventually came back to this one to try again, and I have no idea why I put it down! After I picked it back up, I couldn't put it down again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Politically correct agenda
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
no, I got tired of the political view of the writer. I felt like she was lecturing about recycling, gay rights, transgender causes, which were not necessary for the story line. For example, she mentioned a happy gay couple in the beginning of the book, and never mentioned them again, what was the point? And she described the only conservative in the story as a rich, heartless bigot. I listen to books to get away from this kind of bias, not to have it intertwined in the story.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Get off the political soap box
What about Ellen Archer’s performance did you like?
it was OK
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
not at all

Should Be Titled Terrible Arrangement
This story was a tough one and the characters annoying but I guess it circled back around to an ending that was relatable.

There are no words to describe how much I enjoyed this book it was addictive and I even woke up earlier to listen to my book while I drank my coffee in the morning.
