Review of Stupid Divorce
Frequently, we hear the same message: marriage is a work in progress. Unfortunately, for some, despite putting in significant effort, their marriage remains messy, fails to work, and ultimately leads to divorce. STUPID Divorce by Vincent Fudge II helps readers learn from the author's experiences and the consequences of what resulted in their separation story.
After an on-and-off relationship, Ebony and Edward tried to love each other. Their relationship was based on toxic behavior, which included ineffective communication, resentment, distrust, unresolved conflict and both emotional and physical abuse, leading to an ever-widening void. Edward was willing to give everything a chance, as Ebony had already given up long ago. To Edward's astonishment, he is served with the divorce.
What I liked the most about the book was that the author's story taught readers to learn from their mistakes and experiences. This enables them to repair or improve their relationships. I also liked that the author created awareness among the readers about the divorce process. In the book's title, STUPID Divorce, the author does not mean the literal meaning of stupid as lacking in intelligence, but an acronym that translates to selfish, time-consuming, unnerving, painful, inconsiderate and debt-inducing. As someone who has personally experienced the process, the author provides insight and outlines the specific challenges you may face. Those who are unsure will try to make things work, but those who are certain will know what they are getting into.
There is nothing I liked the least about this book; instead, I liked the author's style of writing, where he foregrounded and bolded the word accept throughout the book. For readers about to go through divorce and those who have already gone through it, the author helps them accept what happened or is about to happen, accept that their partners chose to leave them and take everything going on with their lives. This is the only way to help them heal, regain themselves and move on, as Vincent Fudge II did.
The book was incredibly well-edited since I did not come across any grammatical errors or mistakes in the entire book. For the courage and inspiration that the book gives its readers, I award this book the maximum rating of five out of five stars. Therefore, I recommend this insightful book to readers going through a divorce, as they will be encouraged to continue their journey and be aware of what to discover during the whole process.
