Summary: A nice book but...
Review: I bought this book because I'm new to sex toys, I've recently bought my first two. I wanted some help with choosing, some ideas about how to include them in a heterosexual couple's sex life, and some information about storing and cleaning them.

The book includes:
* Some information about different kinds of sex toys and what their purpose is.
* Lots of ideas for using them, both for yourself and with a partner.
* Information about masturbation for women, without toys!
* Both information about toys for women and toys for men.
* Some information about cleaning them.

The information spans over "normal" sex, strap ons, and anal play. The focus is on a heterosexual couple but is very good for a lesbian couple as well. Not much for heterosexual men though. The focus is on the woman and her pleasures, even though it has a chapter about toys for men and some ideas of how to use toys on men.

What disappointed me was:
* Very little information about cleaning, I would have wanted some info about good adult toy cleaners, what to look at and what they should/shouldn't contain.
* Very very little information about storing and hiding them, since that was one of the things mentioned both here on Amazon and on the back cover I was expecting some info. There was only a paragraph with two ideas: in a shoebox under the bed or in the closet!
Nothing about the fact that jelly products shouldn't be stored together because of the risk of them "eating up" and destroying each other. No mention of the fact that different materials shouldn't be put together. Nothing about keeping them dust and lint-free and if a plastic or a cloth bag is best. I was looking forward to information about that since I've read lots about that on the internet. A huge disappointment. Please search the net too, jelly toys can destroy each other, and every toy should be individually stored.

Another thing I should mention is that she doesn't give any direct tips about brands or products. I guess that's a good descision, but I would have liked some comparasions between different lubricants and some brand names she recommend. But since she doesn't mention any brands at all, I think it's okay.

I'm glad I bought this book and I will absolutely keep it. It was probably worth the money. I read it in just an half hour but I will probably read some parts more than one and I look forward to trying out some of her ideas. It's a nice small pocket book, but it could have been so much better, so easily. Just some info about storing and cleaning and maybe one or two more ideas, and I would have given it a 5/5.

Summary: Great manual for sex toys
Review: I've always been curious about sex toys but always afraid to ask the salesperson "how do you use this?". Until I found this book...it has educated me on how to use toys with myself and my boyfriend! "Toygasms" has great illustrations and is an easy read. It gives you different techniques and tips and I recommend it to anyone who is curious about sex toys.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Once Was Lost but Now am Found
Review: I've always been rather skeptikal of sex toys and I think most men are. My girlfriend bought this book a few weeks ago and it took her a week to get me to read it. I must say though, I'm glad I did! We've been having crazy sex and the toys really do enhance it. This book makes it easy to understand how to use any toy you could imagine and lays it out step by step with suggestions along the way that are phenomenal. We've been buying quite a few toys from Saide's website and each one is a new experience and a guaranteed fun. We've also got Sadie's other two books and they've all become my sex bibles!

Rating: 5 stars

Review: If you want a book that is your complete manaual to sex toys, then this is the book for you. Sadie shows you all the types of toys and how to use them. She also gives you tips on how to bring toys into the bedroom and introduce them to your significant other. Very good read! This book should be in your goodie drawer for a quick reference guide.

Summary: A nice book but...
Review: It seemed I had always had a sexual partner to satisfy my needs, so when I found myself in an extended singlehood drought, I embarked on a quest to find the ultimate sex toy that would take care of me wherever, whenever. The problem was, there was an overwhelming amount of types, shapes, and sizes of toys to choose from & I didn't know which was best for me. The solution I found was Toygasms! This concise, easy-to-read guide to every sex toy on the planet gave me the information I needed to know to invest wisely to fill my sexual toychest. Beyond being merely informative, Sadie's advice seems personally tailored by a woman for a woman who is like all of us, one who is seeking to expand our self-knowledge and boundaries of pleasure. She takes terms and products that we may have heard floating around but weren't too familiar with and didn't know who to ask, and cuts to the chase with everything you need to know about every sex toy imaginable. & I mean EVERYTHING! Before you purchase any sex toy(s), do yourself a favor: be prepared to make the best buying decision and come armed with this book! It will definitely pay off later when you reap priceless orgasmic experiences!

Summary: You don't know what you're missing!
Review: My partner was never really comfortable with me wanting to try a toy...for he thought that it may "ruin me"??? After a good friend of ours told us to check out this book, he finally was convinced that it might respark our sex lives again. We finally ordered the book, and found that it gave us a lot of great ideas and information on what type of toys to try. We then got enough nerve to browse the website ticklekitty.com, and bought a our first toy to try out. We now have a small collection that has only enhanced our sex lives x10! Thanks to Sadie's book...we have been able to become more intimate on a level that I have never experienced with anyone before. If you don't have this book....I really suggest on getting it...because you don't know what you missing! ;)

Summary: STIMULATION
Review: This is a good book if "vanilla" is too old. This book will teach you so much about sexual paraphernalia. After buying this book, my boyfriend and I have acquired a stash. I absolutely enjoy the ass plugs and plastic pussy fillers. Screw the Jesus freaks. Human sexuality is not enough; we need all kinds of plastic, silicone, and rubber objects to pamper our lust. I love cramming inanimate objects in my orifices; it has definitely brought a new spark to our relationship. What a joy!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not as complete as I'd hope for
Review: This is more of what I would consider a "pocket sized" book. No actual photographs of sex toys are included, and though most of the information is correct, it's pretty minimal, and geared more towards heterosexual folks.
