My H told me tonight that I can order SAA from MB & send it to him, he'll read it, then he'll send it to me & I can read it. Questions:

1. Is SAA the best book out of MB's selection for us to read in the stage we're in (nc established for 1 week)? (experiences, if possible)

2. Is it best for him to read it first, being the BS?

I know it's late, but I'm going to place the order tomorrow morning...

That's all. Thanks.

Well, since you are willing, I think it an excellent idea for you both to read, and I don't think it matters who reads it first.

Your library might have a copy...would it be possible to check it out so you can read it at the same time?

Or maybe you could read His Needs/Her Needs then switch when you're done.

You can also go to Amazon.com and order all these books. They have used, in excellent condition (I couldn’t tell they were ever read – might be some lost M’s out there) for about 1/3 the price.

My favorites (as much as one can have favorites in this rotten subject):

1. SAA
2. Torn Asunder: Recovering From Extramarital Affairs, by Dave Carder
3. HNHN
4. Private Lies, Infidelity and Betrayal of Intimacy, by Frank Pittman
5. After The Affair, Healing the Pain and Rebuilding Trust When a Partner Has Been Unfaithful, by Janis A. Spring
6. Not "Just Friends”: Protect Your Relationship from Infidelity and Heal the Trauma of Betrayal, by Shirley Glass

Be sure to do all the exercises.

Good luck,

T

Ditto on the list posted by Thos. Just wanted to add, Half.com is where I've gotten all those books at a fraction of the price.
