More than just a sex manual, Will the Real Women ...

I first heard of this book back around 1995. I ordered the self published version of this book, and applauded her when she went to mainstream publishing. Because I'm in a new relationship, and my old copy sort of hit the dust, I bought this copy as a refresher course.

This book really wasn’t worth killing a tree for the paper to print it. Really it’s lousy and I can’t help but think the author knew it from the number of times (there were fifteen at least) she did self-promotion of the very book the reader had in their hands. I mean how pathetic is it to tell people to read and buy the very book they ARE reading? I should have set this book aside permanently after the third or fourth self-promotion insert and truth be told I wouldn’t let myself because I have recently developed an old bad habit of setting aside a book after getting through a hundred pages. Really this is a worthless book, just a bunch of lists. It really didn’t have anything new, original or creative to say about women’s sexuality or self-esteem. In fact some of what she espouses is just insulting. I can’t imagine that a publisher couldn’t have found a better book to print than this. I got it at a deep discount and now I know why.
