She Comes First Book Review

528985Title: She Comes First.

Author: Ian Kerner.

Genre: Nonfiction, Marriage.

Review: So, I don't usually review sex books but this one was so bad, I have to say something. I got it for my husband for our anniversary partly so he could pick up a few tips and mainly out of payback for the "surprise" birthday present he'd gotten me last year. I read this book in two days and I wanted to like it, at first, but by the middle of the book I was regretting having spent money on it. The main idea that the book tries to focus on is a fairly okay one {the title says it all}, but the rest of the book just fell flat. The second half of the introduction, the first six chapters, the fourteenth chapter, several more middle ones that bleared together and the last six-ten chapters could all be skipped and/or totally taken out. The author continually repeats himself over and over and over again to the pint of boredom. There are lots of chapters that are two pages long where he just sits there and goes, "Okay, let's review and take a deep breath before we get into the actual stuff you want to read. Nah, just kidding; we're gonna be here awhile." The two chapters on the anatomy were good, but you had to keep referring to the pictures in the previous chapter to figure out what he was talking about. The author said in his introduction that he wasn't "anti intercourse" but from the way he went on and on about how bad looking for the G-Spot is and how "un-pleasurable" regular intercourse is, etc. you'd think it was the total opposite. And then, to cap it all off, he gets into porn and "soft bondage" like it's an every day occurrence. Also, the easiest solution to the whole four chapters he wasted on "safe sex" is to just have one partner for the rest of your life. Duh. This guy might've gone to college to get a degree in his chosen field, but he's an idiot. So you can most definitely skip this book - unless you want to buy it from me.

Rating: PG-20 and up, recommended for married couples only.
