Description
For anyone who has ever dreamed of finding true love only to discover that happy endings are just the beginning comes this brilliantly comic novel about marriage, ex-girlfriends, 'performance anxiety', and what it takes to make happily ever last beyond the honeymoon. William is a happy man. He has just married Isabel, the girl of his dreams, and is confidently sailing along on a sea of wedded bliss. He's got a hot wife, a snazzy new job and things couldn't be much better. Sure, there are a few bumps in the road, but life on the whole is good. That is until Isabel's 'best friend' Alex starts to intrude on their wedded bliss. And when William's ex-girlfriend Saskia -- aka the 'Destroyer of Relationships' -- appears on the scene, things go from bad to worse. For marriage, William quickly discovers, has its own set of rules. And while falling in love is easy, staying in love can be a whole lot trickier! Witty, irreverent and laugh-out-loud funny, "William Walker's First Year of Marriage: A Horror Story" is the perfect novel for anyone who has ever wanted to know what the person they're facing at the altar is REALLY thinking -- and been rightly afraid to ask.

1 star rating by cosminxU - william walker's first year of marriage 28 Jan 2010
a seriously disappointing book after a promising beginning, and i'm embarrassed to admit that i read it all (in my defense, i needed something simple as my book of choice during a heatwave, but i would've been better served by re-reading an old favourite). i think the diary/confessions-of-a-messed-up-person genre has been virtually exhausted, so it's time for authors to discover a new and interesting way of storytelling. i won't be going anywhere near matt rudd's second book about william walker's first year of being a father - in fact, it'd be wonderful to think that william's tale of love and misunderstandings were just a bad dream. bugger. i'm still awake...

Author Biography: Matt Rudd
Matt is a writer and editor on the Sunday Times, where he has worked for seven years. In the name of journalism, he has fought three Mexican wrestlers single-handed, had an affair on 'SecondLife', binge-drunk at Wetherspoons, bruised himself on a Japanese toilet and spied on his wife Harriet using the very latest GPS technology. He has also stress-tested M&S Y-fronts but prefers not to talk about it. He is 34 and lives in Kent with Harriet and their two young sons.
