If You're in My Office, It's Already Too Late: A Divorce Lawyer's Guide to Staying Together by James J. Sexton
5.0
I found Sexton via an interview on TikTok that was so startlingly raw and fascinating that I wanted even more of his thoughts. This book delivered (and I highly recommend the audio).
A great book to read at any point in a relationship, Sexton asks the questions we never think to ask ourselves, like What do we want out of this relationship? What does a successful relationship look like? Can we be honest with ourselves about our answers? Why is everyone fucking the nanny? (Okay, maybe that last one is more specific to his clients.)
Sexton describes his book as a how-not-to book rather than a how-to book, which is exactly the kind of refreshing take that I like.
