"Marriage has always struck me as culty, and I am deeply grateful to Allison Raskin for taking the institution to task with such compassion, sincerity, curiosity, and humor. The book feels perfectly timed. Raskin is the relatable, open-hearted modern marriage guide we need!" —Amanda Montell, New York Times bestselling author of The Age of Magical Overthinking, Cultish, and Wordslut
“Marriage norms and exceptions in today’s society are rapidly changing and it can be hard to keep up. Allison Raskin’s book unpacks the questions and uncertainties around marriage that so many of us have, while interweaving colorful stories of real-life couples that help bring these insights to life. I DO (I THINK) is a must-read for anyone and everyone that may be curious about the intricacies of modern marriage.” –Nick Viall, TV Personality, Host of The Viall Files, and Bestselling Author "As a woman who has never crossed the three year mark in a relationship, you can trust that I know how to ignore great relationship advice when I read it, and Allison Raskin has some of the very best. Her writing is so funny and so thoughtful, and eased me into a view of marriage I had never considered." —Jamie Loftus, New York Times bestselling author of Raw Dog "Allison Raskin’s I Do (I Think) brilliantly captures the essence of modern relationships with humor and insight. With her wit, depth, and relatability, Raskin invites us into a candid exploration of what it means to choose a life partner in today’s ever-changing social landscape. This is an essential read in understanding the intricacies of human connection, offering a fresh perspective on marriage that both challenges and comforts its readers." —Jessica Baum, LMHC, author of Anxiously Attached: Becoming More Secure in Life and Love "In this fascinating and deeply personal book, Raskin provides a fresh look at what it takes to build a healthy marriage in the modern dating world. She boldly delves into critical matters that most relationship books ignore—including the role of mental health, gender identity, financial strain, and sexual preferences. Raskin’s expansive perspective creates a more inclusive view of marriage and encourages readers to craft a personalized vision of marriage, a bespoke partnership tailored to each partner’s unique history, preferences, and needs." –Ty Tashiro, PhD, author of The Science of Happily Ever After“I Do (I Think) isn't just about marriage; the book provides actionable advice for anyone navigating romantic relationships at any stage. Allison illustrates that, for the most part, we're all fundamentally good people doing our best, but our baggage, past trauma, and mental illnesses impede us. That's why she approaches marriage and all relationships with empathy, understanding, and curiosity. She acknowledges that while we can't predict what will happen in the future, we can choose to be honest with ourselves and communicative with our partner(s).”–Zachary Zane, author of Boyslut: A Memoir and Manifesto
