UPDATE: MARCH 2023: The Nice Girl’s Guide to Naughty Sex appears to be out of press. This review remains as a reference for people who want to learn about the book in the future. While you’re here, why not check out my BDSM advice, femdom advice, BDSM Scenes Step by Step, and Should I Buy a Fleshlight?
The Nice Girl’s Guide to Naughty Sex is a full-color book published by Amorata Press about different places to have sex. The book includes 8 chapters and has 125 pages, and it’s a pretty small size that is easy to hide. The book is written by Lisa Sussman and illustrated by Lucy Truman. The book itself, while not explicit, does have illustrations of couples in suggestive positions, so this is probably not a book you’ll want to read in public.
The entire book is basically a book of positions and activities you can do with your partner to have more naughty sex. The book organizes things into different categories so you can easily pick what you want (Foreplay, Places around the Home, etc.) when you want it. The book is full-color, and each one of the activities includes a quick-reference guide that makes it easy to see exactly how much effort it’s going to take to do that specific activity. For the most part, the book tends to give you a place to do something and then mention a specific position that you could do at that specific place. It doesn’t really have “freeform” sex positions that you could just do anywhere.
The book covers eight different chapters and topics: Foreplay, In The Bedroom, Around the House, Outdoors, In Public, Vacations and Holidays, Fantasy, and Extra Naughty. Each one of these chapters includes a variety of places around that area that you could have sex. For example, in the In The Bedroom chapter, the book talks about doing it on the bed, on the floor, with tantra, with erotic stories, against the wall like a swing, and things like that.
Each one of the suggestions is accompanied by a “How Hard is It?” and “Naughty Thrills” chart. Each one can be up to 3 stars/hearts for difficulty and the thrill. Each one of the activities is accompanied by 1-3 of the stars/hearts depending on how naughty and sexy it’s supposed to be and how hard the activity is supposed to be to do. Some of the ratings seem to be a little bit “off” though – at least from my personal opinion. There is one that talks about having sex on a public bench, discreetly, in a park by scooting clothing to the side. This one is rated two on both the difficulty and the “naughty thrill” scale. I feel like something like that should definitely be on the high-end of both the “thrill” and difficulty. Having threesomes rates a 3 on the difficulty and thrill scale – in case you need a point of comparison.
The book itself is okay. It gives some cool ideas I hadn’t really thought of, but I won’t say that all of the ideas are the most revolutionary. When it comes to adding a bit of spunk to your regular things you do, though, the book does an okay job with that. A lot of the things are things that we’ve done before (watch ourselves in a mirror, use a vibrator, etc.), but some of the suggestions gave us good ideas and were more “out there” than other books. I’m not sure all of them are practical (especially the Outdoor ones), but for the most part, I think these are all sex activities that most people could accomplish and would enjoy accomplishing.
Overall, if you want some creative suggestions about what to do with your sex life, The Nice Girl’s Guide to Naughty Sex has a bunch of good suggestions that make it an interesting book to check out. Not all of the suggestions are going to be practical for everyone, and more adventurous couples will have tried some of these, but for the most part, the suggestions are creative and are ones that I want to try. Thanks to Amorata Press for sending out this sex book for my The Nice Girl’s Guide to Naughty Sex book review. You can also purchase this book at Amazon.
