I personally found The Ethical Slut to be one of the best and most influential books I've read, especially for the way it de-stigmatizes sex. What are your favorite polyamory books?

Polysecure and opening up would be my recommendations. Ethical slut did not connect with me at all

Working through Polysecure now and it's all kinds of revelatory. There's a recent sequel: Polywise. Heard that's a good read, too.

Also a huge fan of The Ethical Slut!

I liked it a lot better than Polysecure, which was more psychology than polyamory. Also not as huge of a fan of Sex at Dawn, which was more like anthropology than actionable poly material, though it's good for what it is.

I have read and loved The Ethical Slut, but in general I'm not a huge reader! I enjoy the Multiamory podcast, even though it gets a bit repetitive!
