About this listen

Relationship expert and bestselling author Tristan Taormino offers a bold new strategy for creating loving, lasting relationships. Drawing on in-depth interviews with over a hundred women and men, Opening Up explores the real-life benefits and challenges of all styles of open relationships - from partnered non-monogamy to solo polyamory. With her refreshingly down-to-earth style and sharp wit, Taormino offers solutions for making an open relationship work, including tips on dealing with jealousy, negotiating boundaries, finding community, parenting and time management. Opening Up will change the way you think about intimacy.

Content is Fabulous. Narrator is Terrible.

The content of this book is wonderful. It answers a lot of questions about open relationships and covers a wide range of topics. Where this book falls apart is with the narrator, while her voice is okay, it is very nasal, and when she attempts to change her tone to suit “characters” it is ridiculous and takes away from the content.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
