"A luscious smorgasbord of non-monogamy as an opportunity for breaking free of one-way models of sex and love. Taormino's discussion is remarkably nuanced and balanced--and encourages readers to proceed with their eyes wide open." -- Jack Morin, PhD, author of The Erotic Mind
"Courageous, stunningly thorough and inspiring. If you need a pathfinding guide for evolving your relationships, this is it." -- Daphne Rose Kingma, author of The Future of Love
"Superbly informative, sympathetic and literate." -- Dr. Gloria Brame, author of Different Loving
"Taormino cuts through all the utopian theory and gets down to what people really need: the nuts and bolts of how open relationships work. I want to give Opening Up to everyone I know who asks, 'How do you do it?'" -- Susie Bright, editor of Best American Erotica Series
"This is the book you want to read if you're looking for a voice that is balanced, sensitive and sensible when tackling the thorny question of sexual boundaries in love relationships. Opening Up is sure to open up your mind." -- Esther Perel, author of Mating In Captivity: Unlocking Erotica Intelligence
As a poly person of 7/8 years now, I have read a lot on the subject. I bought this book recently because it looked like something a bit different and seemed to cover some of the topics I found lacking in other books. I like the style of writing, the range of topics and the non-formulaic representation of non-monogamous dynamics and though I haven't even finished it yet, I am sold. It's so important that books like this continue to get published, for the sake of anyone who is exploring these things, looking for support and information. I would thoroughly recommend it and thank the author for adding to the growing body of work on non-monogamous relationship styles.
This book is a fantastic read, and offers a lot of practical, down to earth advice for setting up a multitude of different kinds of nonmonogamous and open relationships. Highly recommended!
The basic idea seems right. Taormino does nothing but state some obvious truths. Not much original material. The customer is advised to save his cash. Go to Amazon USA and take advantage of the "look inside" feature. You dont need nothing more.
