This week, we’re diving into Sarah’s memoir pick: Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden. Since we both agreed we wanted to choose a memoir, Sarah brought this one to the table—and it turned out to be a much heavier read than we expected from such a short book.Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage takes an unflinching look at marriage, relationships, separation, and the nitty gritty realities of divorce. It’s intimate, complicated, and at times uncomfortable, giving us plenty to unpack as we discuss what happens when a marriage changes—and what it means to find your way through the aftermath.In this episode, we’re taking our time with the book: a little background on the memoir and its author, our thoughts on the writing and story, and a full discussion of the marriage and divorce themes that stayed with us long after we finished reading.It may be a short book, but there is a LOT to talk about.Grab your copy, settle in, and join us for a deeper Cover to Cover conversation about Strangers. And, as always, stick around to hear our final thoughts and rating. 📚🥂#StrangersAMemoirOfMarriage #BelleBurden #Memoir #MemoirBook #BookClub #BookClubPodcast #BookPodcast #BookDiscussion #BookReview #BookRecommendations #Divorce #Marriage #MarriageBooks #Relationships #LiteraryPodcast #Bookstagram #BookTok #BookReels #ReadersOfInstagram #CoverToCoverCheck out our GoodReads for more ratings and reviews: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/191415688Find more spoiler-free book recommendations here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm29anN3WelsHsSaZaqDa7dKiBHIjdVMK#bookclubdiscussion #bookclubreads #bookclubpick #bookclubpodcast
