READER REQUEST: MARITAL STRIFE BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE!! One of my favorite heartbreak-y subjects that I LOVE to read and cry over (and fume over). And now, due to popular demand, we’re going to make a dedicated list. We had a few “mini lists” going, but this is our MEGA list!!!
Alyssa: Hi Maryse! Could you still make the marital strife list? I’ve been craving this kind of books! Thank you
Amy: I think a marital strife list is brilliant! ![]()
Nay: Ooooh, marital strife! One of my favorites!! I was just looking over the Spiral of Bliss series yesterday!
Kandace: Oh my favorite book is Arouse by Nina Lane! Her Spiral of Bliss series is amazing.


Are you in the mood for an intense, pajama-top drenching sob fest? I know your instant reaction is GAH!! Noooooo!!! But you know so many of our absolute forever favorites included a deep, heaving cry. Those moments (and books) that we’ll never forget. Sometimes those are cathartic, you know. It doesn’t always have to end sadly for one to have a good cry while reading. Right? 😉
