1. «The Boudoir Bible: A Guide to Sex Without Limits», Bethany Vernon
If sex for you is 10–30 minutes in traditional positions, a little oral foreplay "for warming up" and rare orgasms, "The Boudoir Bible" will open up a whole world of new pleasures.
You will learn that you can give up viewing sex as a short chase for orgasm and turn it into a sacred act that brings incomparably more pleasure and satisfaction. The author discusses the peculiarities of anatomy and stimulation of certain points in men and women, examines the topic of anal sex and preparation for it in detail. Talks about sex toys and techniques: shibari, erotic spanking, the use of temperature, and much more.
If you are ready to abandon traditional views and shame, to accept your body and experiment with it, "The Boudoir Bible" will be a good guide for you to enjoyment.
Very often, quick sex leads to the sacred union being reduced to an obsessive, mechanical act that leaves one or both partners feeling emotionally empty, physically thirsty, and unsatisfied... Through simple improvements in sexual skills, lovers will learn to create rituals that can last for hours, if not days.

2. «The Bible of Sex. Updated Edition», Paul Joanidis
If you feel some tension when preparing to read about sex, boldly choose this book—the tension will dissipate from the first chapters. The whole book is filled with light humor, so reading without a smile is simply impossible.
Attempts to define sex are often like trying to introduce a vaginal diaphragm: every time you think you've done it, the damned thing pops out at you like a ninja.
This is a real encyclopedia that seems to cover every aspect related to sex. It even has information about kissing and undressing, sexual relations with colleagues, sex in the military, sex during menstruation, not to mention expected topics such as orgasm, sexual fantasies, contraception, and sex toys.
So, even if you consider yourself an experienced person, you will surely find something new in the book.

3. «Intimate Gymnastics for Women», Ekaterina Smirnova
Many women go to the gym or play sports, developing muscles all over their bodies, but forget about intimate muscles; others lead a sedentary lifestyle, which even worse affects women's health and the tone of the pelvic muscles.
In Ekaterina Smirnova's book, after a brief theory (what and why to develop and how it will affect health and pleasure in sex), there is a list of exercises for different levels of training. The execution is demonstrated by a clothed woman in the pictures, and the direction of efforts is marked by arrows; however, the descriptions are quite detailed, making it clear what and how should be tightened.

4. «Strawberry on a Birch. Sexual Culture in Russia», Igor Kon
In this book, you won't find advice or practices; however, it can seriously engage those interested in Russian history and the roots of our attitude towards sex. If you're looking for a lighthearted humorous book, I advise you to steer clear of this work. Here, of course, there are amusing moments, but they are not too many.
Igor Kon describes the history of Russian sexuality from pagan times to the present, discusses what sex was like in Rus', how attitudes towards sex and the body changed in the Soviet Union and after its collapse, and what changes await us in the future.

5. «Yes! Secrets of Love for Two», Mantak Chia, Rachel Carlton Abrams, Douglas Abrams Arava
To this day, many believe that ejaculation in men is necessarily accompanied by orgasm, while multiple orgasms are the domain of women. Mantak Chia's book debunks this belief. The Taoist teacher and Qigong master has taught the Western world Taoist love practices for many years that reveal the sexuality of people of both genders and provide amazing sensations.
Ejaculatory orgasm is like an exhilarating flight, but after experiencing the prolonged and ecstatic aerobatics of multiple orgasms, the regular ejaculative landing will disappoint you with its simplicity and lack of flair.
The author explains and proves through Western research and Eastern practices that multiple orgasms in men are not a myth, that this is available to everyone and beneficial to health. The book also includes techniques for achieving pleasure for both partners, a chapter for homosexuals, a discussion on how to maintain attraction to a partner for many years, and ways to deal with issues such as impotence and premature ejaculation.
6. «Sexuality, Love and Gestalt», Brigitte Martel
This book is dedicated to the psychological problems that interfere with sexual life. Brigitte Martel, a French psychotherapist with extensive experience in individual and group sessions, discusses problems that are often encountered by her clients: women's lack of orgasm, men's premature ejaculation, loss of sexual desire in couples, and many other troubles which Gestalt therapy helps to successfully address.
There are no complex terms, convoluted explanations, or theories here. Everything is simple and clear-cut, supported by real examples and very interesting. You may recognize your situation in the story of one of Brigitte's patients and understand which direction to take. Moreover, the book helps to understand that any issues you have in sex are solvable.
This book is primarily for you—those who began their sexual life with trauma, who were suppressed by upbringing, who lost their sexual interest, or started to view sexual life as a duty... but also for those who strive to fully experience their sexuality...
