I think this is quite an extraordinary book.  The author has shared a painful aspect of her life that led to the breakup of her marriage, the taboo of porn addiction.  She wrote a moving account of the tragedy it inflicted on her life and how it ended her marriage, and then exposed the reasons for this impulse that is made so easy and available now with the internet.It would be easy to dismiss men who are drawn to porn as sleazy, but Ms. Westman explains how stresses of everyday life can lead the men we know and love to seek release in the privacy of their computer room, not realizing the risky game they play when their spouse discovers their habit.  Porn can raise habit with the family budget, can ruin trust, intimacy and if children discover it through overhearing arguments or casually clicking on the computer, can tear apart the fabric of family life.  It is more prevalent than we realize and this book should be read by women to give them acknowledgement for the pain they endure, and by men to understand the pain they inflict on the woman they love by playing games with women on line who are mere fantasies.  A valuable and brave book.  Buy it.
