A gal from work gave me this book. It's pretty darn entertaining. A lot of the information in it is pretty obvious, and some points in the direction of maybe being a little too promiscuous...but it's an interesting read nonetheless! Hunker down with some wine and read this one for fun!

I think this book is hilarious and a must read for men and women. However, it should be viewed as a guide for sex as in the way that "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenence" is understood as an actual handbook on Zen or motorcycles. In Pirsig's "Zen...", Zen and motorcycles are used as images of freedom and spirituality for a man finding himself. Sex is used largely in the same way for Heimel: a vehicle to express the new freedoms and emotional turmoil young adults face as they wrestle with adult romatic relationships. And it is very funny; laugh-out-loud, read-it-to-your-friends-and-neighbors-even-boyrfriend, funny. Easy to relate to, poignant and very funny. What else do you want from a book? Buy it; read it; share it. You won't regret it.

what a nice book...there are so many truths in there which even my aunt has shared with us after college, like afternoon sex and dating your boss. Anyways, while this is a bit of a dated book, it is funny, witty and presents a lighter side of an otherwise tabou topic (in most families, not in ours!).
