Natalie's polyamory journey narrated in this book sounds heartwarming, and I would like to know where this journey ends.

I for one would prefer monogamy, although it's always good to get other people's perspective. I like that the author recounts her experience openly. In My Journey To Polyamory And Back the author tells her experience in a polyamorous relationship.

I have never come across a book about a polyamory and it seems interesting. I think we should have a peak on each one of the relationship types and then decide what we are comfortable with.

I have heard of polyamory, although I must admit that my knowledge of it is limited. This book seems like good insight into that type of relationship, unlike how it’s portrayed in mainstream media. Thank you for the helpful review.

It takes deep courage and understanding for a couple to go into a polygamous relationship. Even though I'm a christian but I am willing to read this book without judging anyone,everyone has there reasons. Also, in relationship sometimes you need to take a break and weigh things. I admire the author of this book.

This book is full of surprises. Polyamory, not a common word I must say. Congratulations to the author on winning BOTD.

Such a new concept of cheating on each other but doing it mutually makes it ethical. Interesting!

I don't think I love the idea of open relationship. In my opinion, it is better to properly divorce, and the people involved will go their separate ways. I think Natalie should have a re-think. I look forward to reading this book. Great review. Congratulations on BOTD.

I have not heard of polyamory before, just hearing it now for the first time. I don't think this( polyamory), is a practical solution to resolving problems in their marriage. I would love to find out how this works for them though, congratulations on BOTD!!

Well, from the title it looks like the author went out on a path and then retreated. I am interested in what happened to everyone in the story because I am curious about people but not necessarily bi-curious or polycurious. *My Journey To Polyamory And Back* by Natalie Loveleen could be a good guidebook for those interested in different types of relationships, since it is the story of what happened to Natalie when she and her husband tried an open relationship. I do have to believe that at least one person was ‘hurt’ in this experiment.

Though I had heard that this kind of relationship existed, I got to know the term for the first time through the title. 'Polyamory' seems absurd, yet one must not judge those practising it, as we don't know what demons they are fighting in their personal and marital life. Therefore, I would like to read about the unique journey of Natalie and understand what happened afterwards.

I am not really interested in polyamory because I find it absurd as life has become a lot easier with divorce. I would only read the book to learn and gain knowledge about why this is done and how to avoid falling into the acts leading to this behavior. Thanks for the review though.
