This American Ex-Wife: How I Ended My Marriage and Started My Life by Lyz Lenz
I appreciated this analysis of the author’s marriage, especially the section about women changing their last name when they get married. I think we are still far from having truly equal marriages and things seem to be getting better only incrementally. Conversations about the topics raised in this book might help.
