If a book is a slice-of-life and is about a marriage, either positive or negative, I would like to read that book. The Half Moon by Mary Beth Keane was a new novel this year about just that and came in as my #5 read of the year. Malcom and Jess are dealing with business ventures, infertility, and just overall aging and relationship qualms. It takes place over a week in a small town during a blizzard.
