The Marriage Plot - Jeffrey Eugenides - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of the book The Marriage Plot:

Marriage isn't always the right answer, not even in college.

My favorite Jeffery Eugenides quote from the book:

“People don't save other people. People save themselves.”

Questions I pondered while reading The Marriage Plot:

Can travel provide a spiritual perspective?

Do I have the patience to love someone who is severely ill?

My thoughts about The Marriage Plot:

College wasn't much more fun than high school.

I will pass on hospital volunteering.

Mental illness impacts everyone.
