The Art Of Oral Sex
Here is a quick read for those of you who want a little more info on oral sex. It is not a how-to on going down because there just aren't enough details, but it will probably tell you something you haven't thought of before. Unless you have a lot of experience and then I say read this only for the pictures (and erotic stories at the end).
Pros
Quick read, has a little something for everyone.
Cons
Not detailed.

Sexopedia
Containing information on areas of sexuality that other books simply ignore, Sexology is a valuable resource. Many sex books attempt to entice the reader with photos of sweaty bodies and daring camera angles, but Sexology focuses on kick-starting the imagination through the power of suggestion. It appeals to intelligent people who would rather be equipped with sexual know-how, than insulted by overly augmented, air-brushed picture books that show poorly and hardly tell at all.
Pros
Informative writing, erotic, tasteful photography, well-researched evidence.
Cons
May seem too wordy for some, illustrations could be more descriptive.

None.

Down and Dirty Sex Secrets
This book surprised me with how well-written and thorough it was. I was genuinely concerned that it would be one big Cosmo article, and found that it was much more interesting and intelligent than that.
Pros
Answered questions thoroughly and didn't talk down to the reader.
Cons
I didn't always agree with the author's personal opinions, but that's normal.

Taormino doesn't just describe the physical aspects of sex (though she does devote chapters to anatomy, science and how orgasms work), but also the ideology behind sex. She discusses the bond between partners, what sex means, and how to have an understanding and deep respect for the human body and what it's capable of.

The Good Vibrations Guide To The G-Spot
This book is best for absolute G-spot newbies, or those who really need to be told "It's okay" whether or not they experience G-spot orgasm. Besides some interesting tidbits, I was disappointed. The book itself wasn't but there just isn't a lot of information on the subject, and most of it is readily available online for free. Cathy Winks did provide what information there is, in a generally easy to understand and reassuring way, however. It might be helpful for a woman's partner to read.
Pros
Easy to understand, straight forward, nonjudgmental, includes experience from real women.
Cons
Lack of actual information, repetitious, not just about the G-spot but lacks A and U-spot mentions.
Rating:

The book is laid out into half a dozen useful sections; they cover everything from "What Is The G-Spot?" to using sex toys in order to achieve maximum pleasure. It also contains an easy to understand diagram of the female anatomy.

The Goddess Orgasm
The content was well written and engaging. But for the more self aware person, as far as knowing your body and what works for you to achieve orgasm, I am not sure you will find anything worthwhile in this book; unless you like a bit of light reading on Greek mythology, and ancient cultural beliefs, regarding goddess's and sexuality. It is a book that just didn’t really enlighten me at all, perhaps for others it may but not this girl.
Pros
A relaxed, informative read for women who are having difficulty achieving orgasm.
Cons
Very basic book.

Pros

My experiences with this book lead to a neutral response. While our massage skills did seem to improve, the massages were relaxing, not arousing.
Pros

Whipsmart
Informative, but overly clinical and not very exciting or arousing. Great for beginners but too slow for those with any experience in S & M, or those looking at it as a piece of erotica.
Pros
Informative. Easy to follow. Excellent for beginners and those just starting out in S & M.
Cons
The play scenes are a little forced. The hostess is clinical and stiff. Not very engaging or sexy.

Superdate: How to Be One, How to Get One
If you believe that dating is all based on calculated interactions, grab this book now! If you believe that it has a lot more variables than that (I do) you should still learn something and it couldn’t hurt anyone to better understand the fundamentals of body language, but don’t expect anything more. Will this book have mates flocking in your direction? Probably not, will it help boost your confidence? Definitely.
Pros
Extremely easy to read and follow. Pictures clearly show what to do and what not to do.
Cons
Completely oversimplifies dating into a play of body language.
