Book Club Replay: HOW TO STAY MARRIED with Harrison Scott Key

Harrison talks about what went into his decision to write about marriage and infidelity, what it's been like having a deeply personal book out in the world, and more

In April, Harrison Scott Key joined our book club to talk about his heartbreaking and hilarious memoir How to Stay Married. I think we were all struck by how open and honest Harrison was about his life and writing. He talked to us about his writing process, why religion and spirituality is such an important piece of the book, and what it’s been like to have a deeply personal and vulnerable memoir out in the world. I think you will enjoy this discussion even if you haven’t read the book.

Order HOW TO STAY MARRIED

If you want to go the extra mile, leave How to Stay Married a five star review on Goodreads and Amazon (even if you didn’t buy the book on Amazon), share a picture of the book to your social media, or recommend it to a friend. These small actions can make a big difference to the authors whose books mean so much to us.

Thank you, Harrison! And thanks again to our partners: Mississippi Book Festival, Lemuria Books, and Friendly City Books. Thank you to the team at Red Squared for recording our production with intention and care at their studio in The Hangar.
