Review:
This book is generally considered to be the bible for open and polyamorous relationships, this book explores what it means to love and/ or lust-after multiple persons and still maintain sane, happy relationships with everyone involved. The authors call it as they see it. The language is plain, simple and frank. (They sometimes get wrapped up in being politically correct, but it doesn't take away too much.) The book isn't specific to any one queer community, and you may not agree with everything the authors say (nor are you expected to agree) -- but it'll help you think about yourself and your relationships in fresh, new ways. A must-read for anyone in an open or poly relationship.

Review:
What does a book written by two bisexual women have to do with bears? Plenty! Although the book is often called "The Bible of polyamory," it's not just for folks who want to love multiple partners. It's useful for any kind of relationship. The authors write in simple, light-hearted, non-preachy language about topics like jealousy, effective communication, sexual honesty and many more topics. A must for anyone in an open relationship. or who's simply curious about the complexities of love and communication.

Review:
Using the magical and mythic language of classic stories from around the world, Fairy Tales takes familiar myths and folktales and turns them into stories about men coming out, learning to trust themselves, looking for and finding love, facing AIDS, and helping those they love.

Review:
Nelson draws both on his interviews with other men and on his own experiences in the gay dating scene to present this revealing and often humorous guide. From breaking down psychological blocks to surviving a breakup, Nelson explores the key issues in gay male relationships and the baggage left over from adolescence.

Review:
Appicable to bears as well... there is even a section on same sex relationships- a fascinating blend of traditions- Sufi, Christian, Buddhist and others into a book that works...takes a lot of the 'ology' out of it.

Review:
Booklist called this "a welcome addition to practical gay literature". David McWhirter and Andrew Mattison, authors of The Male Couple, say it's "must reading for all male couples", while Michael Shernoff of the National Lesbian/Gay Health Foundation, says it's "bound to become a classic".

Review:
This book discusses long-term male relationships. I found it to be very interesting in that their descriptions of how relationships develop seemed to echo several couples I know in long-term relationships (up to decades). They also discuss topics such as monogamy exceedingly well, without becoming judgemental either way, and present examples of successful long-term relationships. This book is out of print, but Amazon will attempt to search for it.

Review:
Filled with sensible, heartfelt advice from someone who's been there and bounced back, this guide has been designed specifically for the gay man who is undergoing--or has undergone--the breakup of a loving partnership.

Review:
This pro-gay/pro-family book is meant to help parents come to grips with with child's non-heterosexuality. While I didn't agree with everything the book said, it's still says a lot that parents would need to hear. I doubt it would magically change the minds or feelings of homophobic parents, but the book provides a way for communication to start.

Review:
Excellent insight and reflection into the mystery of soul. Insights gleaned by Moore lead you on your own personal journey and reflection of your soul and its relationships. Frees you from the to-do-lists of self helpism and let your imagination and creativity lead you to a natural healing. A must read for people bound by conventional relationships and yet yearning for soulful connections.
