From her Manhattan single-girl professional days in which she longs to meet her perfect match, to the suburban cul-de-sacs of Charlotte, North Carolina, where her family eventually settles, and where she endeavors to make new friends, new routines, and a new identity, Caroline takes the reader deep into the heart of female experience, probing the big questions that keep us up at night. How do we give to our families without losing ourselves? Is it possible to have a truly symmetrical marriage, or is one partner always sacrificing more than the other? And if we keep up with the Joneses and the Sign-Up Geniuses, what might we miss? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With the warmth and honesty of \u003ci\u003eI Miss You When I Blink\u003c\/i\u003e, the narrative grace of \u003ci\u003eYou Could Make This Place Beautiful\u003c\/i\u003e, and the poignant clarity of \u003ci\u003eIt. Goes. So. Fast., You Know How I Feel About You\u003c\/i\u003e is the journey of a storyteller coming into her own. Through essays that chart the emotional rollercoaster of imagining a certain kind of future--only to discover that the lived reality is something entirely different, both better and harder than expected--Caroline is an everywoman whose observations and experiences readers will ache with, cheer on, and see themselves within.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caroline Hamilton Langerman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 125046255X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250462558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.38w x 1.00d","brand":"Caroline Hamilton Langerman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48483398484223,"sku":"9781250462558","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e4caacdf-63c5-4f00-86df-24f5c1b23d56.jpg?v=1778038555","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/you-know-how-i-feel-caroline-hamilton-langerman-9781250462558","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
