With The V-Word girls can finally take control, learn what’s on the horizon, and eliminate the fear and mystery surrounding this important milestone. Some of their experiences happened too soon, some at just the right time, but all paint a broad picture of what first-time sex is really like.įunny, hot, meaningful, cringe-worthy, gross, forgettable, magnificent, empowering, and transformative, the stories in The V-Word are never preachy, but provide a map for teens to chart their own course through the steamy waters of sex. In The V-Word seventeen writers (including Christa Desir, Justina Ireland, Sara Ryan, Carrie Mesrobian, Erica Lorraine Scheidt, and Jamia Wilson) pull back the sheets and tell all, covering everything from straight sex to queer sex, diving-in versus waiting, and even the exhilaration and disappointment that blankets it all. But do you have anyone telling you what sex is really like? ![]() Will it be candlelight and rose petals or quick and uncomfortable? Is it about love or about lust?

He fully expected it would blow my mind to discover towards the end (okay, spoiler for this 17 year old movie…) that it was not 1800s as the setting implied, but modern day with cars, medicine, wifi, and all that. On a related note, I recently watched the 2004 movie The Village for the first time at my boyfriend’s excited suggestion. There were some clues along the way that backed me up, and I wanted to walk through a few of them as well as partially review the book itself altogether. The ending was completely unsurprising because from early on I had a thought of what the “twist” would be, which proved correct. Hey y’all! I finished the recent release Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney this week, a mystery with lots of secrets and various people scheming against each other.

Slaughter, until I had professionals in my field point out the dangerously gratuitous violence against women in that author's books. It's hard to throw an avid reader off track, but I have to give Jewell props for keeping me guessing. The delivery, in the beginning, was achingly slow, but I realized as the pace picked up later that that beginning with the barely perceptible ticks here and there was the author's stratagem - like a comfortable drift downstream until the first rapid upends your tranquil ride and submerges you in a truly horrible world of tumult and heartbreak.
