Although this topic doesn't apply to me currently. I still found this book to be a fun read. It's written in a workbook style format.

This was a fun workbook, however, I do wish that this bucketlist book was more of a prompt list to work on. This didn’t list a whole lot of ideas but was more of a journal, which has its place in the world. I liked the illustrations, I just wanted a big list of ideas to jump start mh own

DISCLAIMER: I'm not married- YET.

Planning a wedding is EXHAUSTING, but with fun and engaging books like this designed to make the most of your life with your partner after the wedding- it's rewarding. I loved the layout of this book and that it's journal-slash-scrapbook-slash-ALL the IDEAS!

I think this will be such a fun book to start to plan our lives together and also to look back on in years to come and reflect on the amazing times we shared- AND to maybe do some of those 'one in a lifetime' trips or things we never thought we would.

I say this a lot, but it's true- the digital version is cool and all,, but I CANNOT wait to have the physical copy in my hands so we can mark it all up! There's something about having a physical planner/to do list/journal that I'll never be able to replace digitally.

HECCKIN' AWESOME BOOK!

A great book for couples to explore their dreams and desires for the future.

This book allows a couple to design their lives to accomplish the goals of both people. Each make their own list and then discuss it with the other. It may result in conflict, but the book encourages the couples to talk and exam many of their life goals. These include achievable and practical goals; skills and classes; and even charitable giving. It provides space to talk about trips – where you were, something that brought you closer and why you were inspired to go. This makes the book a legacy to your family, as well.


I received an ARC from Penguin Random House through NetGalley. This in no way affects my opinion of this book. I am voluntarily submitting this review and am under no obligation to do so.

A very cool guide and journal for couples to plan their bucket lists and goals. The beginning encourages couples to consider what their goals are and how to plan for them and the remaining pages are devoted to the couple writing in each bucket list goal. I wish there were more suggestions or external resources as it may be difficult to consider all we want to do in our lives. This would be a wonderful wedding or retirement gift for a couple.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for providing this ARC. All thoughts are my own.

I love journals like this and have several similar that my boyfriend and I like to fill out during vacations.

I think the title is confusing for this book. It is not only for married couples. It also isn’t really a list, but a journal.

If you can look past the cover page, I think you will find a fun adventure journal to complete!

This is cute and a journal that couples, even ones not married could use to plan adventures together.
Cute.

Thanks NetGalley for this preview.

Cute book with a lot of good ideas for a couples bucket list. I would change the title to Couples instead of Married Couples as you don't need to be married to execute these ideas...I gave it a 3 because it is mostly a journal. The cover is appealing more appealing than the actual text when you find out that it is a journal/planner. Based on the title I would have expected more lists and ideas.

Another gem of a book/journal this year.
Wonderfully laid out and so easy to follow, just not for couples but families as well.

Thank you Netgalley and Zeitgeist for the ARC

Thank you, Zietgeist, for the review copy.

This journal is for the ones who wants to have the most basic minimal presentation with the most basic prompts as per the intent of journal entry. The prompts are focused and well planned out.

The design is mininal. The activities and the space of planning involving both partners are well etched out.

The cover is attractive and there seems to be a lot going on there while the actual content is simple and minimal.
