In conjunction with Amazon.com and Distinctive Distributing, here's an easy way to order some of Sue's recommendations from "Talk Sex".

Parents who want their kids to have comprehensive sex education should pick up "THE SEX BOOK: An Alphabet of Smarter Love" by Jane Pavanel, published by Lobster Press. Encyclopedic entries and Q&A sections break down such issues as abortion, AIDS and peer pressure in language teens can understand. It is one of the best books around for young adults.

KEITH, CANDID ANSWERS TO QUEER QUESTIONS by Dr. Keith Loukes, published by Whitecap books is absolutely the very best book for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered readers. This segment of the population is often ignored in sexual health literature, and Dr. Keith's book addresses those specific concerns perfectly. Published in Canada, you can get it online and it is worth the effort believe me.

Many folks are intrigued by the idea of tantric sex. This new book SEVENTH HEAVEN by LINDA SONNTAG, published by BANTAM BOOKS, is the best book I have ever read about Taoism. Positions, meditation, new ideas, it is all there, but it takes practice and patience. It's well worth the read.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) It's very impolitic of me to recommend my own book, but this is an updated version that I am proud to mention. It addresses many of the common questions we get on the show, everything from anal sex to AIDS. I think you will find it informative. And of course, my mouth is open on the cover. Typical!

For folks who are interested in bondage and S&M, I always recommend this book - ON THE SAFE EDGE: A MANUAL FOR SM PLAY by Trevor Jacques. Jacques covers much more than just the basics, with plenty of information on safety, health concerns, and emotional concerns. Highly recommended.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) Many women have trouble achieving orgasm, and often, it's because they have never learned to pleasure themselves. In SEX FOR ONE, Betty Dodson offers terrific advice to women on the methods and the value of masturbation. Again, highly recommended.

“ALL THE WAY -SEX FOR THE FIRST TIME” by Kim Martyn is an informative book to be read by all teens about their first sexual intercourse. Beyond “just say NO”, parents can't talk about it, but our youth need to know. Martyn is an experienced sexual educator and this is her turf, so let her do the talking. Highly recommended if you've got kids.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) Cory Silverberg is an expert on sex and disability, and his book, THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO SEX AND DISABILITIES, is an excellent self-help book for those with limited mobility, chronic pain, and illness. It provides expert information on sex positions, orgasm, and sex toys. It also features illustrations and a resource guide.

Finally, a book with a little meat on its bones - “RECLAIMING DESIRE: A Guide to Finding your Lost Libido”, by Goldstein and Brandon. The authors, a gynaecologist and a psychologist, aim their book directly at women who feel their sex-drive has gotten up and driven away. They thoroughly understand that female sexual disorder is a complex mix of physical, emotional, and intellectual malaise. No drugs, no therapist, just awareness and insight. I strongly recommend this book for all women of all ages.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) O.K. gotta be honest and admit, I did not read the book - I did exactly what everybody else will do, look at the pictures. The book, THE WILD GUIDE TO SEX AND LOVING by SIOBHAN KELLY, features cover-to-cover bouncy females and gorgeous hunks doing an impressive acrobatic sexual orgy. Same sex, twosomes and threesomes, S&M - you name it, you got it. There is text, but the photography is so erotic you won't need your bifocals. This book will fire up some hot fantasies!

I know a lot of people regard anal sex as absolutely beyond the realm, but judging by the number of questions I get at colleges and universities plus the number that come in to TALK SEX every week, there are a lot of folks who have questions and concerns about the topic. The ULTIMATE GUIDE TO ANAL SEX FOR WOMEN by TRISTAN TAORMINO is a handy guide. Included are health and safety tips, pleasure techniques, and a section for males. It is a great resource if anal sex is what you are into.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) On occasion, two of our brave crewmembers review a porn DVD, and very seldom do they both like the same video - in fact, generally they find the story line incredibly weak, the stars all surgically enhanced to ridiculous dimensions, and in a word...awful.Many women ask us about quality porn that appeals to both sexes, and this book covers the subject perfectly - THE SMART GIRL'S GUIDE TO PORN by Violet Blue. The author discusses how to introduce erotic films into the sexual equation, as well as specific films and reviews. It could save you - and the crew - from some very bad porn.

DOING IT RIGHT by Bronwen Pardes is a brand new book for teens, both males and females, and their parents. She writes about all the controversial issues that most sex ed. programs avoid, such as homosexuality, masturbation, abortion, oral and anal sex. Most parents run scared from these topics, too, so – Mom and Dad - get the book, read it then leave it out for your kids to find.

(CLICK ON BOOK IMAGE TO PURCHASE ONLINE) Everything you ever wanted to know about female orgasm is right here in the book: how to get one, how to make it better, the signs and symptoms, how to know if you've had one, multiple orgasm, simultaneous orgasms -- you name it. Women should put this book on their 'gotta have' list, read it, and memorize it.
