Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic by Esther Perel

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

As a Counselor who works with couples often around intimacy, connection, and sex, she is great! Somehow, Perel finds a way to make uncomfortable topics simple, playful, and even funny. Lots of nuggets about who we are and how we find connection through the book.
