review 1: I did enjoy this book, although I was somewhat torn and really struggled while reading it.My feelings are not attributed to ‘wrapping my head around and actually getting’ polyamorous relationships and its unique perspectives. I get it—I really do.Nevertheless, I just couldn’t put my finger on ‘not feeling it’... and after careful consideration; I think I will place the blame squarely on –Meredith! I understand the trauma she went through. I understand the process of gaining her life and sexuality back—I just didn’t connect with her character.I believe Meredith’s return and my tepid reaction to her, as a reader, had a lot to do with my personal belief that—an ‘ex’ is an ‘ex’ for a reason—and yes, that is entirely my hang-up...not meant to ta... moreke anything away from the story.I absolutely LOVED Scott in “Light Switch.” I also LOVE Scott in this book. The novel is told using Scott’s POV which is a treat. I had no difficulty or angst regarding the sensitive subject matter and circumstances that moved the plot forward. It was also completely plausible and understandable that Scott would assist Meredith or any other woman that needed his help who found themselves in a similar situation. “Reconstructing Meredith” was erotic, sensual and just as spicy as “Light Switch.” I loved the cover art and visiting other characters that were introduced in the previous novel, but this book was just different—not in a bad way... just different.Would I recommend it? Yes. It’s a good read. We discover the evolution of Scott, Kristen and Matt's relationship, after “Light Switch,” and where these characters are headed.
review 2: Not really sure about this - apart from Scott being the most fantastic Dom I have ever read about !! So caring, thoughtful, cleverly domineering.....mmmm yeah!It was difficult reading about Meredith's past and her horrible ex - but it was uplifting in the way that she was determined to overcome all her psychoses - and I was rooting for her all the way.This is the first time I've read such well-balanced polyamory; both Kristen and Matt came across as well-developed characters in themselves - it might be nice to read a future story about them too ! less

eh. I'm not really a fan of books about abuse. I dunno why I read this one.
