Exactly. One must be able to support one's arguments.

Well, there is a part of the book that states that he is not promoting open marriage (he contradicts himself a lot...), because open relationships are "emotionally dangerous". He advocates true sharing. For me, I don't see how the two are different, and again - he does a poor job of explaining it.
Anyway, thank you gen_g and CatInTheHat for commenting, I really appreciate it :)
Just from this, he seems to be promoting polyarmory, but "true sharing" is a term which is tricky, isn't it? :lol: (You are welcome, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your review!)

The title looks catchy but the author is giving us an insight about relationship and relationships can become when guilt and jealousy are alleviated

I was hesitant to read this book, and I think I am going to pass on it. I have heard mixed reviews, but I don't see myself enjoying this book.

Apart from the overall theme being unappealing, the fact that the author tried to broach an unpopular ground, that encourages some free-thinking, yet is being stereotypical is ironic. And that's just a few of many things that turn me off about the book. Thanks for your detailed review!
I totally agree with you. There is no way that I could read this book. The title is definitely an attention getter, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

This book has caught my attention but it doesn’t help see it in another prospective but it’s giving us a idea of relationships and I like that good work

Latest Review: The Mountain and The Goat by Siamak Taghaddos

It seems that the key USP of the book is controversy, which it endeavors to highlight in its title itself. However when you peel the tempting skin off, its the content that counts. Glad that the reviewer has adopted an even approach to dissect the book.

Great review!
