[see below] This book needs a TRIGGER WARNING for anyone whose partner has had sex outside of their commitment.
I could not finish it; I barely started it before having to get rid of it.

[below] after getting over my initial triggered reaction (took an entire 24 hours!), the humour got through to me and I'm going back to finish the book. It is exceptionally well-written, which has up- and down-sides ;-).
