Husbands and Other Sharp Objects by Marilyn Simon Rothstein A heartwarming, hilarious novel for anyone who has ever had a family, from the author of Lift and Separate.
After a lifetime of marriage, Marcy Hammer is ready to get herself unhitched—just as everyone else in her life is looking for a commitment. Her new boyfriend, Jon, wants to get serious, and her soon-to-be ex-husband, Harvey, is desperate to get back together. When her headstrong daughter announces a secret engagement to Harvey’s attorney, Marcy finds herself planning her daughter’s wedding as she plans her own divorce. “I laughed. I cried. I cried while laughing. This is my second Rothstein book and I just loved this story. Her ability to capture the nuances of marriage, divorce, family, siblings, loss, and friendship was spot-on. I especially loved her connection to her beloved mother and the way in which she described purchasing a new home—one which her mother will never see. Moved me to tears. I’ll miss these characters.” —Rochelle B. Weinstein, USA Today bestselling author ISSUE NO. 09
