Come as You Are: The Surprising New Science that Will Transform Your Sex Life
If you only read one sex book this year, read this book. It’s awesome because it’s all based on peer-reviewed science, and Nagoski writes with an awareness of feminism without being preachy. While it’s written with an eye toward helping explain how women’s sexuality works, the principles contained here – such as why there’s no such thing as a “sex drive” – apply to everyone. You’ll get a bunch of vocabulary and concepts to understand how your sexuality works (which could also be applied to understanding how your partner works).
