I always wonder about people that review a work of fiction and expect the story to be based strictly on reality- Married While Intoxicated said it was a hilarious romantic comedy. I found the situation and the crazy mother pretty funny, maybe because I grew up with a mother that knew how to have fun (not that mom did anything as crazy as in the book). Another thing I thought about was the parents often arranged marriage for their adult children until about a hundred years ago. Many of these couples met at the alter and managed to have successful marriages.
SPOILER: This couple agreed to see each other again and explore a relationship with a touch of humor right at the end. Married While Intoxicated made me giggle as I read it because it was humorous.
