A Curious History of Sex by Kate Lister
4.0
A lot of fun and very informative! I enjoyed that Lister used various words that have been coined throughout history to describe body parts, liquids, actions, along with the date the word arrived in the language (I had no idea "Bollocks was over 1000 years old!). My favourite phrase was Pudding Bag.
I loved that she included pictures throughout the text, as it's a very visual subject, and there is plenty in here that challenges what we think we know.
This was the perfect tone for a book on sex, and I had a lot of fun reading it.
