This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
By J. Courtney Sullivan
Publication Date: June 11
From Amazon:
Evelyn has been married to her husband for forty years--forty years since he slipped off her first wedding ring and put his own in its place. Delphine knows both sides of love--the ecstatic, glorious highs of seduction and the bitter, spiteful fury that descends when it's over. James, a paramedic who works the night shift, knows his wife's family thinks she could have done better. Kate, partnered with Dan for ten years, has seen every kind of wedding--from the Nantucket beach wedding to the Irish castle wedding--and has vowed never, ever, to have one of her own. And Mary Frances Gerety, a young advertising copywriter, knows exactly what marriage is: it's a diamond ring on a girl's finger--and it's her job to make sure everyone believes that. Weaving these lives together, Sullivan gives us a sharply observed, witty, irresistible portrait of the thorny, joyful, and complicated union that is marriage.

Hoping to read your pick as well; sounds good Jill.
A really great choice--I want to read this one!
Great choice - I was a fan of Commencement, so anything new of hers is worth checking out IMO.

That sounds good. I love that explores all the different kinds of marriages.
Sullivan's last book was too character driven for me, so I'll have to think about this one.

Your book looks interesting. Is it a bunch of stories in one, or a bunch of people brought together by the subject of marriage?
Great choice. I'll have to add that to my goodreads list.
