Amy Gahran: Stepping Off the Relationship Escalator (Paperback, 2017, Off the Escalator Enterprises LLC) 4 stars

Review of 'Stepping Off the Relationship Escalator' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Read most of it but the ending chapters dragged on and retread information in earlier chapters for me. I will say that this book has shifted my views on relationships and pointed out things that used to be dealbreakers (like having kids) don't have to be dealbreakers, because social standards have dictated one person is supposed to be our everything.

That goes against our very nature as a social species. Our survival depends on community strengths and weaknesses. Why should our relationships (sexual and nonsexual) be any different?
