Reviews

• “Whether you’re just beginning your polyamory journey or you’ve been living a polyamorous life for decades, these daily reads will help you approach your relationships in a mindful and constructive way. Evita has this amazing ability to take complex, overwhelming concepts and bring them down to earth. Her reflections are nice and bite-sized while still being very rich.

  —Chad “polyamfam” Spangler, polyamorous entertainer and educator

• “A Polyamory Devotional is as refreshingly authentic and thoughtful as the woman who wrote it. Reading through each day’s prompts felt like listening to a good friend tell you that they’ve been through the same struggles you are facing, while gently nudging you in the direction of self-reflection, introspection and personal betterment. I found myself bookmarking specific prompts that reminded me of the things that needed work in my own relationships so I could return to them whenever I wanted a comforting reminder.”

  —Emily Sotelo Matlack, co-host of the Multiamory podcast and co-author of Multiamory: Essential Tools for Modern Relationships

• “Reading through each page feels like a baptism to the parts of my soul that fear the dismantling of everything that nonmonogamy forces you to confront within yourself. This book is a true blessing, allowing the reader to have the guidance of Evita as a shepherd as they climb the proverbial mountain of polyamory.”

  —Jessica Daylover, writer of the Remodeled Love blog and co-author of Polyamory and Parenthood

  —Jessica Fern, author of Polysecure: Attachment, Trauma and Consensual Nonmonogamy and Polywise: A Deeper Dive Into Navigating Open Relationships

• “Ethical nonmonogamy takes doctorate-level relationship skills, and A Polyamory Devotional is an essential guide through this process. Through her challenges and missteps, Evita compassionately teaches us how to deal with hard feelings, navigate sovereignty, and open our hearts to love more than one person. These daily reflections provide not only the tools but the hope that we can all gain growth, unlearn harmful relationship beliefs and develop deeper self-awareness through the consensual nonmonogamy journey. The wisdom in this book deserves a Ph.D.”

  —Casey Tanner, queer sex therapist and creator of The Expansive Group
