Congrats on BOTD. I'm not a religious person, but I don't support polyamory. To me, it's just an excuse for people to have affairs without being criticized.

I am a jealous person and considering Polyamory isn't for me but Im a person who is not Judgmental. I would love to read so as to understand a different type of relationship.

I've never heard of such type of relationship. This is absurd, why will someone want to have multiple relationships and how do you manage it? This book doesn't suit me but I want to know more about polyamory. Thanks for the review. Congrats on being the BOTD.

Having worked in a swinger's resort I have met many people in this type of relationship, and they all seemed rather happy. It's an interesting relationship dynamic that can work for certain couples. I enjoyed your review.

This book shows the transition between marriage full of fantasy at the beginning and gradually loosing the fun and connection you both enjoy. And the solution devised here is polyamory where you connect with your partner and also feel the butterfly experience with another person.

And also bringing back the butterflies is marriages must be a shared concern. Both couple must put heads together to fix things. But am happy that Natalie admitted the flaws in her marriage and the desire to fix things.

Albeit I am not fond of the topic of polyamorous relationships, I try to regard this book as an adventure which cannot be achieved by most people. Experiences like this are important to be shared, to be learnt from and to inspire. By the way, the short paragraphs in this book never fail to depict Natalie's impetuous trait and catch my attention and interest to know what happens next after next. Good review and congratulations to Natalie for the BOTD!

This memoir in exploring and experiencing a polyamorous relationship sounds like a book I'd be interested in. I imagine that communication and trust are two factors that play an even more important role. Great review!

There are often many misconceptions when it comes to the concept of polyamory. It sounds like reading this book would be a great way to break down the realities of this type of relationship!

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting book/memoir about the author’s polyamory relationships with other men while her husband had his own polyamory relationships with other women. It might not be for everyone, but might be worth a second look. Well done.

Funny how the world is trying to change certain wrongs by giving it certain big names. I have nothing personal against the author or the book but I would pass on reading the book. Memoirs are not really my thing, also the storyline does not appeal to me at all

This seems like a recipe for disaster, but I guess to each their own, right? It sounds like the author is well versed in polygamy and polyamory. I think I'll pass on reading this one. Thanks for the informative review.

Such an unusual book.
I'm not a fan of this kind of love story, but I will try out the book to know exactly what the author had in mind when writing it.
Good review!

I know very little about polyamory, but regardless of one's beliefs, this sounds like an interesting read.

Even though I consider this polyamory absurd, I'll love to read this book to know how Natalie was able to overcome through this. Congrats on the BOTD.
