Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden - A Review

Strangers is a raw, inward looking take on love, identity, and what happens when you quiet yourself inside a marriage that suddenly ends. 

The beginning really pulls you in and feels emotionally sharp and close. The second half, which leans more into the legal and social fallout, feels a bit more removed and less personal, but it still matters. 

Overall, it’s a strong look at power, gender roles, and the hard work of finding your voice again. It’s clearly written from a place of privilege, so it won’t fit every experience, but the grief that comes with losing a relationship feels universal.

★★★ (3.5 stars)
