My boyfriend and I have been going through this. There's been some things that we felt were extreme generalizations, and maybe not totally perfect for our situation, but overall it has helped both of us to have many conversations that were really good to have before moving into an engagement.

The only marriage book I’ve read that doesn’t just summarize all the sermons we’ve ever heard. Honest and challenging. I’d recommend for YA girls AND guys.

Read it in about 2-3days. When a friend recommends it because another friend recommended, you kinda expect it to be something worth reading. I liked that the book contained many relevant examples and points of considerations for singles and dating couples. While not extensively quoting bible verses, it offers a Christian approach to dating and I think might be worth reading to non Christians as well.
