Their stories are honest and personal. Giuliana cops to lying about her age when she first met Bill so he would think she was 29. (She was 31.) She also acknowledges that she regifted a free iPod as an anniversary gift. Bill, who has a keen business sense and knows how to negotiate a deal, had to learn finesse when dealing with theentertainment industry.
"I Do, Now What?" makes readers think about what they want, expect and need from a relationship. The book also serves as a reminder that respect and communication are paramount.
The Rancics are happily married, but that doesn't make the book too syrupy or sickly sweet. They acknowledge their differences, tease one another and, at times, agree to disagree.
Reading about a happy marriage is refreshing because we usually hear about couples who bicker, don't appreciate one another and break up. Giuliana and Bill are a reminder of not only how it could be, but also how it should be.
"I Do, Now What?" is an interesting, easy read, written in a conversational tone that makes it a breeze to get through. It's a fun look at a relationship that works.
My only complaint: Fans of "Giuliana & Bill" will recognize some of the anecdotes as story lines from the TVshow. The Rancics might have chosen to address different, "fresh" material in their book.
