About this listen
Why are so many people exploring new possibilities in love, and could opening your mind to these ideas allow more joy into your life? Want to know if expanding your view of love could bring more joy to your life? What other relationship styles exist beyond traditional monogamy, and could they be right for you? Are you curious about how people manage multiple relationships?
"Unconventional Love" is the third book in the "Allow Your Joy" series, offering a lighthearted and witty introduction to non-traditional relationships. Written with the lighthearted charm, warmth, and vulnerability readers and listeners so loved in her previous books, the author takes you on a journey filled with laughter, tears, and plenty of "did that really happen?" moments.
From dating disasters to heartwarming successes, she shares it all - including explaining polyamory to her conservative family and being super jealous about how her partner's metamour makes the perfect cuppa! All to the backdrop of her South African, British and currently Thai tropical island lifestyle.

A Warm & Wise Guide to Alternative Relationships
A refreshingly honest and practical guide that perfectly balances personal experience with actionable advice. Holl's British wit and Thai island wisdom create an engaging narrative that makes complex relationship concepts accessible and relatable.
The audiobook particularly shines through her warm narration, bringing authenticity to stories like explaining polyamory to conservative family members. Her vulnerability discussing jealousy and relationship challenges adds credibility to the practical guidance offered.
Essential chapters on communication strategies and emotional intelligence provide valuable tools without preaching. The blend of personal anecdotes with structured advice makes this particularly effective for both curious newcomers and experienced practitioners of ethical non-monogamy.
The author's multicultural perspective and lived experience elevate this beyond typical relationship guides, offering unique insights into building successful alternative relationships while navigating societal expectations. A perfect balance of informative and entertaining.

It’s real, it’s raw, and it makes you feel seen.
I didn’t think I’d relate to a book about non-traditional relationships, but wow, this hit me hard. The author’s stories felt so real, like she was just sitting there, telling me everything over coffee. The part about handling jealousy? Yeah, that one really made me think about how I deal with my own stuff. It’s not preachy, just super honest and full of little tips that make you go, “Oh, that actually makes sense.” If you’re even a bit curious or just want to understand love differently, give this a shot.

I learned so much!
This book was a candid, insightful, and often humorous explanation of non-traditional relationships, including polyamory, and open relationships. I love how Juanelle shares her own experiences, both the successes and the awkward missteps, with vulnerability, humor, and honesty. It's almost like a hybrid between a memoir and a practical guide and feels like you're having a deep conversation with a close friend. I also always give respect and props to authors that narrate their own books, it really is a completely different skill from writing and I applaud that! Overall I recommend this book if you are the slightest bit curious about understanding non-traditional relationships, or if you have friends and family involved in these and want to understand them better!

an interesting read
An interesting read for someone looking for something a little different from the traditional relationship. For me I enjoy reading but not sold on the idea or think it a good idea.

Embracing Diversity
Juanelle Louise Holl made and narrated Unconventional Love: An Introduction to Alternative Relationships, Polyamory, Open Relationships, and Beyond, and she did a fantastic job. This book was different, covering polyamory, open relationships, and more. Learning how the authors handled their relationships, emotions, and communication was interesting. She emphasized that those things were essential in those types of relationships. She stresses the importance of giving each person in the relationship equal attention, communicating your feelings if you are uncomfortable, anticipating pushback and feedback from traditional relationships, and understanding how to handle parents and children in such relationships. The alternative, unconventional lifestyle is different, but the author has a helpful guide to help you enjoy and sustain your relationship. We must all learn to embrace diversity. It is a valuable book for anyone new to polyamory or in an open relationship.

An honest look at love beyond the norm
This book offers an approachable introduction to alternative relationships. It breaks down the complexities of polyamory, open relationships, and more, making the concepts feel relatable even if you’re new to the ideas. The chapters on communication and emotional intelligence were especially insightful. I appreciated the balanced perspective, addressing both the joys and challenges of non-traditional relationships. It’s thought-provoking and left me rethinking how we define love and connection in modern relationships.
