Crush praised by Lena Dunham!
by Ada Calhoun Jun 08, 2025

She writes in Good Thing Going: "If open relationships are suddenly everywhere, so are open marriage books. Divorce memoirs and narratives about broadening sexual horizons constitute 87% of the book recs I’m given these days. I’ve read some great ones (Ada Calhoun’s Crush is sexy and silly and hopeful) and some that made me wonder who has the time for a latte and a hand job at 11am on a Tuesday in THIS economy. But, with the genre expanding faster than that East Side LA polycule your friend is circling, it seemed like a good time to highlight classic stories of one-on-one matrimony, its pleasures and discontents."
