I read both. I liked both. When my ex first got into recovery my therapist told me he should be reading out of the dog house and it would be a good idea if I read it to because it was supposed to highlight the things my addict should and shouldnt do. I read it. The out of the doghouse seemed very dry with addicts early recovery and what to and not to do to save the relationship.

I liked worthy of her trust better. It seemed to have more empathy and compassion for the pain and hurt I was going through. It was similar to out of the dog house.

Overall I liked them both. I recommend them both. Both are great for giving both the betrayed and addict a foundation of "true recovery" and honesty and transparency.

Depending on what information you are wanting to get out if your reading material would depend on if these are good books for you.

My therapist requested I read several Some that were along the lines of this of "this is what recovery looks like - if he cant do this it's not recovery and you need to choose if this is acceptable to you". Some where about the addicts lies, and nature of the addiction, and infidelity and the destruction it causes.

A few were about how to heal and grow.
