Summary: Good for some fun!
Review: What people need to realize BEFORE they purchase this book is that it is not a cure-all for an already ailing relationship. If you are willing to just relax and enjoy what you and your partner are doing, then it is fine. I have a feeling that some of the people who gave the book a bad review were expecting it to work miracles. It's good for the open-minded couples who are good communicators. Don't buy it though if you are not willing to try some otherwise unusual things.

Summary: dissapointed
Review: I got this book as a "joint" present for my wife and myself expecting it assist us in adding "life" and "spark" to our sexlife. We have both been fairly dissapointed, though. You are supposed to tear out one page per week and do that for your spouse sometime during that week. I was instructed for my first assignment to fill a tub for my wife with burning candles around the room. We both do lots of things like that for each other anyway. Some of the assignments are sexual, others not so much. I think I might recommend this book to newlyweds, but not for people that have been married for any length of time. My wife and I both agreed that we have been able to use our own imaginations more evectively than we have been instructed thus far in the book. I would recommend each of you writing down 20 things that you've always wanted to do, regardless of shyness or fear, and put them into a hat. That way you can really spice things up, and save 30 bucks in the process.

Summary: Corny and costly
Review: I bought this book thinking that the information in it was going to be so fabulous that they hid it in the tear out pages. When I started reading it I was expecting more real advice on relaxing, relating and pleasing one another. It's not there. For anyone in their late 30's+, this book will remind you of the show from the 70's "Love American Style." The plus side of this book is that, because we made the effort to buy this book and get comfortable looking at it together, it was easy then to toss it on the floor and really really talk about how to please each other.

Summary: Very mixed feelings
Review: I agree with most of the other reviews. Some of the ideas are great, some of them are insane/illegal, some of them are nothing new for anyone who has anyone sort of communication in their relationship, and many of them rely heavily on you and your partner falling into the stereotypical gender roles of likes & dislikes. The one thing no one's pointed out is that, overall, these are a bit of a challenge for anyone who practices safer sex in their relationship. Corn does NOT take that into account anywhere & many of these actually work against that. Just something to think about . . .

Summary: Don't Listen To The Grinches!!
Review: Before my boyfriend and I bought this book, some of the negative reviews here on Amazon made me hesitate. I'm very glad we bought it anyway, because we are enjoying it (and her other books) immensely. Not all of the scenarios are as daring as some may think, but I realize that I have probably been more adventurous than most in my life! I think that what most of the people who didn't like this book were missing was the anticipation that this book brings. Obviously not all of the scenarios will be right for you, or even new. The thing that you lose in a long-term commitment is that edge of anticipation, even if you still have a fulfilling, wonderful sex life. You already know you're going to get it, and you know it will be good. What this book adds is the tingle of anticipation. You still know the sex will be awesome, you just don't know exactly how. And just knowing that your lover has been planning something for you all week is very, very special, even if your "surprise" is a little silly, or even a little familiar. I think this book will give you back what you put into it, and I'd hate to have anyone miss out on it because a few people didn't enjoy it.

Summary: Silly
Review: Silly. Banal. Boring. I got this book as a wedding shower gift and almost immediately started tearing pages out, looking forward to the erotic delights that would await me. All I can say is, "Say what?" If you've been married 50 years and never really liked your partner, these ideas might work. If not, you'll find them downright laughable.

Summary: Great book to spice-up your sex life.
Review: I bought the book to get some ideas to find different things, and found a whole lot more. My wife is glad that I bought it.

Summary: So far I love this book
Review: I have just started this book and I have been sooooo happy with it. I love the idea of doing those things to my husband, but he absolutely drives me wild with anticipation when it comes time for him to do his. We have done things because of this book he wouldn't consider doing before. I am very very happy.

Summary: Not a total waste
Review: So far, most of the "For Her Eyes Only" have been things we have already done. I just added my own twist to them. There are some suggestions in this book that are great. It does make you talk to your partner more about what it is that YOU want in bed. It's a fun project for a loving couple and does enhance your sex life. If anything, it will give you some ideas.

Summary: This book changed our lives.
Review: Our sex life wasn't bad to begin with. We started off with all the right chemistry, but after the "honey moon" phase ended, we were right smack in the middle of a rut. We were too tired, too full, too drained and too overworked to put any energy into our libidos. This began to cause doubt and hurt feelings. Two subjects we had never encountered and didn't like.101 Nights of Great Sex, has 101 recipes, approximately 50 for her and 50 for him. The recipes are designed to accomplish two things, (1) fill your mate with pleasure and (2) shed your inhibitions. Because you are instructed to complete these recipes as a couple, you are simultaneously being pleasured and taking intimate risks. This will not only bring you closer today, it also lays a strong foundation for a healthy and exciting sex life, for all the days that you live. Once you embark on this journey, you will never go back to mundane, routine and boring eroticism.
