I abandoned the book after listening up until chapter 3. The breakup book got an extra star , from the 1 star I was going to give it,because it’s on polyamory and the author tried. She tried but didn’t do a good job. From the portion I listened to the book felt full of over generalizations of polyamorous people. She also made generalizations about LGBTQ relationships. I started laughing when she actually said most lesbians stop having sex when they move in together and that’s one of the reasons why the seek out polyamory. Stop having sex in the first year? What lesbians? Okay,I’m going to move on….
The book detailed reasons why people broke up. She highlighted sexual incompatibility,Money and Household things such as cleaning,child rearing etc.

As a polyamorous person, I noticed almost ALL of the issues highlighted in those 3 chapters could have been fixed with communication. It’s almost like the author didn’t understand that. I’m not even sure if she’s polyamorous but her research was horrible for this book. I really went into it hoping and wishing she would discuss how to work through these breakups but she just gave these dumb generalizations and stories,that I’m not sure were fully true. I would have been happy even if the book was full of stories about break ups in general. Overall I’m very disappointed.
