I received an EARC of this book from Netgalley and the Book whisperer and had no preconceived notions or even anything about the author. Cary Tennis is an advice columnist for Salon magazine and the book is made of letters and his answers, mainly about relationships.
People certainly get themselves into strange relationships, hence the title. Cary answers with honesty and never denigrates the questioner, which I consider a major feat. If I had answered some of these questions, I don't think I could be quite so kind.
It was interesting reading a book I might never have picked myself, which is a reason I am in 10 bookclubs and belong to Netgalley. Sometimes I am quite surprised by how much I like a book that others do not, but also I frequently do not like books others rave about. That is also why I like to read reviews on Goodreads and hope that my reviews help others.

Insights into it her people's relationships and the questions they have about them. I was intrigued by the stories shared in this book! Some caught my attention more than others but overall I'm glad I gave this one a try. Thanks to NetGallet for the ARC.
