Kissing for Beginners April 19, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
In her book, "Seal it with a Kiss," Violet Blue covers a lot of bases on the subject of kissing, however, it is definitely geared toward women - which isn't bad but maybe there should have been a heads up, because if men pick up the book looking for advice, they'll be disappointed. On the other hand, they can definitely learn some things if they can put themselves in the woman's place. Violet sometimes seems to be talking to school girls, particularly when she discusses kissing games. Overall, the information is good but if you have experience kissing and you're looking for new ideas, you're better served going elsewhere - this book covers the fundamentals. However, I really liked the fact that she mentions and is a proponent of eye contact, which is very important in making a connection during a kiss. Summary: good for female beginners.

A Good Addition to the Basics December 17, 2010
Format:Paperback
"Seal It With a Kiss" is a book by Violet Blue and published by Cleis Press. The book is miniature in size at seven inches tall and five inches wide. It has a pretty discreet cover that can be taken out in public. The book is 131 pages and broken into nine different chapters. The book takes about a half an hour to an hour to read straight through; it's not a long read.

The book is definitely intended for heterosexual females. It's written in an "I'm your best friend" type of language, so it's nice and laid-back. It seem to be written towards heterosexual women in their twenties who are currently playing the dating field. Most of the tips don't seem to be focused towards those in relationships, but it isn't hard to modify the slight language nuances to apply to your situation. Males or homosexuals could also easily apply the techniques given in this book.

This book isn't chock full of amazingly unique ideas, but it definitely has its fair share of quite a few novel concepts. Some of the information is stuff I feel like I've read before online and in Cosmo/women's magazines, but some of the information is actually very informative. I definitely learned some good stuff by reading this book.

The book covers a nice variety of topics. It includes things like specific kissing techniques, types of good and bad kisses, how to turn a bad kisser into a good kisser, what to do about hickeys and stubble-rash, party games to play with group kissing or just couple kissing, "advanced" techniques like flavored lip gloss and how to share your food/beverage during a kiss, and how to make your lips appear more kissable. It also talks about more "mental" aspects like how to accentuate the teasing before a kissing, how to form a connection during your kiss, and how to create suspense.

Overall, Violet Blue has made a pretty detailed book that, while not all novel (after all, how many different ways can you kiss?), still includes a very big chunk of new information that will turn you into a better kisser.

To be honest, I never thought there'd be that much to say about kissing, but Violet Blue has managed to provide some expert tips and make me think about kissing in new ways. I guess I figured it was something you either know how to do, or you don't, and she walks readers through every aspect, from prepping for a kiss, types of kissers, types of kisses and how to get the most bang for your puckering up.

Blue is funny, too, such as telling readers about the Zoolander kiss; "The Zoolander makes you feel like you're a pretty prop designed to make him look good as he poses, shifts, and gives his `sexy' face to the world while kissing you. Would he notice if you were gone? Probably not." Yes, she covers bad kissers too.

I like that she doesn't neglect kisses to other parts of the body than the lips, either. Personally, I'm a fan of the back and love kissing the shoulders, upper back, and also the chest.

Even if you think you're the best kisser in the world (I'm not that arrogant, but thought I knew the basics), you can learn how to make your smooches sizzle even more with these tidbits of mouth-watering advice. Bonus points: if you're an erotica writer, like me, you can also get some ideas for your next story, because kissing can sometimes be underrated in both real life and on the page. This book is both fun and informative and will, I hope, be beneficial to my boyfriend who is the recipient of most of my kisses!
