Come As You Are: The Surprising New Science that Will Transform Your Sex Life
The first lesson in this transformative book is that every woman has her own unique sexuality, and that women vary more than men in their anatomy, sexual response mechanisms, and the way their bodies respond to the sexual world. Second lesson: sex happens in a context. And all the complications of everyday life influence the context surrounding a woman's arousal, desire, and orgasm. Cutting-edge research tells us that the most important factor for women in creating and sustaining a fulfilling sex life, is not what you do in bed or how you do it, but how you feel about it. Which means that stress, mood, trust, and body image are central factors in a woman's sexual well-being. Once women understand these factors, and how to influence them, they can create better sex and more profound pleasure. A workbook by the same author is available.

Emily Nagoski Come Together: The Science (and Art!) of Creating Lasting Sexual Connections
From the New York Times bestselling author of Come as You Are and co-author of Burnout comes an illuminating exploration of how to maintain a happy sex life in a long-term relationship. In her first book, Emily Nagoski, PhD, revolutionized the way we think about women's sexuality. Now, she takes on a fundamentally misunderstood subject: sex in long-term relationships. Nagoski dispels the myths we've been taught about sex - for instance, the belief that sexual satisfaction and desire are highest at the beginning of a relationship and that they inevitably decline the longer that relationship lasts. This book isn't about how much we want sex, or how often we're having it; it's about whether we like the sex we're having. Break down the obstacles that impede you from enjoying sex - from stress and body image to relationship difficulties and gendered beliefs about how sex "should" be; learn the best ways to overcome them. With scientific rigor, humor, and compassion, Nagoski shows us what great sex can look like, how to create it in our own lives, and what to do when struggles arise.

Carrie Finison, Daniel Wiseman Don't Hug Doug (He Doesn't Like It)
Doug doesn't like hugs. He thinks hugs are too squeezy, too squashy, too squooshy, too smooshy. He doesn't like hello hugs or goodbye hugs, game-winning home run hugs or dropped ice cream cone hugs, and he definitely doesn't like birthday hugs. He'd much rather give a high five--or a low five, a side five, a double five, or a spinny five. Yup, some people love hugs; other people don't. So how can you tell if someone likes hugs or not? There's only one way to find out: Ask! Because everybody gets to decide for themselves whether they want a hug or not.
