4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good Book, September 4, 2007

By	Zola - See all my reviews

I bought this book because I was interested in learning more about the subject. The sex book genre is full of books that have an interesting subject, but appear to be written by 5th graders, and then printed without being edited. In addition, the publishing quality is frequently fairly low, which makes for a bad reading experience. This book, however, was a pleasant surprise. It's well-written, interesting, informative, and published in a professional manner. I recommend it to anyone looking to learn more about pegging.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nothing New, February 2, 2009

By	SevenDelta - See all my reviews

This is the third book with almost the same title. "The Strap-on Book" and "The Ultimate Guide to Strap-on Sex" covered this subject adequately long ago and not much has changed.

The real problem with these narrow-focus books is that they are little more than magazine articles plumped up with worthless filler so they can be sold over and over. These 160 pages could be reduced to a single chapter in another book . . . But wait, they already have.

For the best $$$ deal, buy "Anal Sex for Women" or "Anal Sex for Couples." The former has better pictures and the latter has more details with less fluff. Plus you get all the extras in a better package.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, a solid resource, September 26, 2008

By	Collie - See all my reviews

Violet Blue's writing is, well, boring. She lacks a voice or tone, and if she were writing anything else, I'd have to give this book 3 stars at most. But since this still ends up being such an informative guide, I can let the stilted writing go. I only wish there was more about different harness styles- there are WAY more than what is mentioned in the book, and kinksters on budgets can't afford a shoddy harness.
The erotica in the book was alright, but pretty unimaginative. Hasn't Blue ever considered that just because the woman has a strap-on, doesn't mean she's nessacarily topping?
