Study Up for Spectacular Sex!

Stock your Library with Titillating Texts

While turning to the internet for answers can give you quick results, you'll find more detailed discussions about sex if you hit the books. For years, sexperts have been stocking our shelves with an astonishing number of tomes that cover every imagineable aspect of human sexuality, and now they're ready to start filling up your bedroom library as well!

It doesn't matter if you're in a relationship, on the prowl , or simply wanting to learn about something you've never tried. No matter what your situation, we've got a book that can help you explore, enhance, and excite your intimate encounters.

Educate Yourself for Better Sex

Even the most incredible lovers can benefit from adding a new trick or two to their routines once in awhile. Get out of a sexual rut, learn techniques that will help you improve your performance, and impress your partner (or future partners) with your prowess.

First, examine the areas in which you feel lacking. Once sex has become a standard aspect of your relationship, foreplay often falls by the wayside in a couple's rush to get down to business. If you feel as though you and your partner have allowed this critical and fulfilling part of your sex life to slide, get back on track with a collection called Foreplay Sex Games. With 1001 ideas that are sure to excite and intrigue both of you, this book is a surefire way to remind yourselves that sometimes, the pre-show entertainment is even better than the show itself!

Perhaps, like many couples, your sexual routine is as predictable as the tides. If you constantly find yourselves in the same positions (and could practically act out each move in your sleep), it's time for a change. Get some fresh ideas with sexpert Jessica Stewart's The Complete Guide to Sexual Positions, or create a stronger emotional and physical bond with the ancient art of tantric sex. Do you think your man would respond better to suggestions from his favorite porn stars? Read all about their favorite positions and get some naughty ideas of your own! No matter which book you pick up, you can promise yourself that you won't repeat your tired old routine ever again.

Maybe there is an area or two in which you feel personally lacking. Have no fear; it's never too late to improve upon the skills you already have. Learn how to give your female lover the most amazing oral orgasm she's ever had with tips and tricks from Dr. Kenneth Ray Stubbs, the author of an entire collection of sexual improvement books including The Clitoral Kiss. Trying to blow your man away -- literally? Get your hands on a copy of Tickle His Pickle, a light-hearted but informative look at the many ways to please a penis. You can even educate yourself on a matter they never covered in school -- penis enlargement. Learn what works (and what doesn't) so that you can make a big impression on your lover. A little book can go a long way!

Educate, Explore, and Experiment

Are their some sexual subjects you're just too shy to bring up to your friends and lovers? Do you wish someone could write you an "everything I always wanted to know but was afraid to ask" guide to the fetish of your fantasies? Chances are, they already have!

Maybe you've heard about bondage and discipline, but you just don't know where to get more information. Books like Screw the Roses, Send Me the Thorns will give you an introduction to the world of B&D/S&M. Find out if this is something you'd like to explore further, or help ease your partner into the fantasy world you already inhabit.

Books can be great tools to help your lover overcome any fears he or she may have about the adventures that arouse you. If you've already had positive experiences with anal sex, for instance, you may be eager to continue exploring this erogenous zone. Your partner, on the other hand, may be hesitant, and a well-written book like Tristan Taormino's The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women or Jack Morin's Anal Pleasure and Health could answer his or her questions and alleviate a lot of concerns.

Don't Just Have Sex, Make Love

Books can also help you make the most out of your relationship -- emotionally as well as physically. Your sex life may be satisfying and passionate, but connecting on a deeper level is important, too.

Learning more about your lover is a terrific first step toward that deeper connection. If you're involved in a relationship with a member of the opposite sex, you may sometimes find yourself wondering what planet spawned this strange creature! Get some insight on Mars and Venus from the renowned expert, John Gray, or get a different perspective from the light-hearted but insightful Goddess' Guide to Love.

Of course, you can also use the physical aspects of your relationship to enhance the emotional ties you have to one another. Delving into the intimate and almost spiritual art of massage is a terrific way to show your partner that you're sensitive to his or her needs. Discover techniques for both stimulating and relaxing each part of your lover's body with detailed massage photographs and explicit manuals. Touching each part of your partner's body in turn will clue you in on his or her personal quirks, preferences, and intimate details. Even if you've been together for years, a sensual massage is bound to introduce you to aspects of your lover that you've never seen before.

The Library is Open

Ultimately, growing your sexual library will provide you with countless opportunities to enlarge everything from your penis to your sexual options to your romance. Expand your horizons with a little higher education, and the benefits will be enormous!
