My rating: ★★★★★
“One thing we
wholeheartedly agreed on was that love wouldn’t just happen to us. We had to
pursue it.”
I adore Jeremy and Audrey and I adored this book! These two
write so wonderfully and descriptive that it made me crave all the fall things
and want to pack my bags and move on up to Oregon. Of course that wasn't the
point of this book, but it was a bonus!
Having seen bits and pieces of Jeremy and Audrey's love
story over the years on Little People Big World, it was nice to read their full
story in this book, with alternating perspectives. One thing I LOVED about this
book is learning how creative these two have been and still are in writing
their story. They believe in adventure and their intentionality in their
marriage is inspiring! Jeremy and Audrey are both sentimental in the best way
and that shows in the traditions they keep (letter writing 💌,
visiting their trestle, handmade gifts, etc.) Here is my absolute favorite
quote from this book (besides the one above) ⬇️
“It was refreshing to
be with someone who complemented my nonconformity rather than someone who poked
fun at my silly aspirations.”
YASS. There's so much goodness in that quote. I love that
Jeremy and Audrey keep God at the center of their marriage and lives, and with
that means they aren't going to conform to everything the world and society
tells them they should do (or think or act or dress). I love this line because
it displays how great it is to find someone who you can be 100% yourself around
and you don't feel judged or looked down upon. THIS is what marriage should be,
folks!
This book is for everyone no matter your relationship
status. I loved all the ideas I got from this book for my own marriage and I
will most definitely have my husband read this ASAP! I could keep going about what I loved about
this book, but I should probably stop at some point. If I haven't made it clear
enough, get this book!! 💗
