    About this audiobook

    A Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestseller.

    Honesty is the best policy…except maybe when it comes to marriage in this brilliant novel about the high price of perfection from bestselling author Camille Pagán.

    Wife. Mother. Breadwinner. Penelope Ruiz-Kar is doing it all—and barely keeping it together. Meanwhile, her best friend, Jenny Sweet, appears to be sailing through life. As close as the two women are, Jenny’s passionate marriage, pristine house, and ultra-polite child stand in stark contrast to Penelope’s underemployed husband, Sanjay, their unruly brood, and the daily grind she calls a career.

    Then a shocking tragedy reveals that Jenny’s life is far from perfect. Reeling, Penelope vows to stop keeping the peace and finally deal with the issues in her relationship. So she and Sanjay agree to a radical proposal: both will write a list of changes they want each other to make—then commit to complete and total honesty.

    What seems like a smart idea quickly spirals out of control, revealing new rifts and even deeper secrets. As Penelope stares down the possible implosion of her marriage, she must ask herself: When it comes to love, is honesty really the best policy?

      What a lovely surprise! This book was exactly what I had no idea I needed. Even with the challenges in the story, I found myself appreciating the insights and savoring the sarcasm. Brava!

      I enjoyed this book very much. It wasn't life changing, but it does talk about difficult topics and gives you a push for important reflections about your own life.
    • 3/5
      Light read but definitely not cheerful. Kudos to the writer for talking about the opioid epidemic in the US!

      Good listen (audiobook). I want to open up more now.
    • 5/5
      Great writing, love the deep dive into the reality of how difficult parenthood, marriage, and grief can be. Also love the narrator, Amy Mcfadden; she does a really good job in engaging the listener.
