Customer Reviews

"My name is Tristan with a T".
What's it like to be Tristan Taormino? Read `True Lust' and you'll have a better perspective of who she is and what it's like to be a Perky Sex Diva for an entire generation. All the essays and commentary are relatively short but each one tells a story of sexual growth and exploration. Topics range from getting a lap dance to group sex. She even talks about transgender and what it's like to be a bisexual woman.

Yes, the book is provocative but encompasses an honesty that communicates the importance of exploring ones own sexual identity as caring adults and yes acting responsibly. With in `True Lust' you'll laugh, you'll be aroused, and also find yourself mindful of an alternative culture of women and men. Written very well I enjoyed the upbeat and thoughtful views depicted in this book.

Of course, this isn't a book for everyone. You do need to possess a little curiosity, a little open mindedness to accept that there are others in the world who like things that are extremely spicy in bed, out of bed, and lifesyle in general.

This book certainly does hold many adventures in sex, porn, and possibly perversion.

How could you not love it?
I thought this book was great. I also thought that this book was organized and written in a smart and thoughtful way.

I feel that her writing style was both smooth and captivating.
I think the tone of the author changed from adventure to adventure or topic to topic, which also made it feel more complete. There are more intellectual topics, there are funny topics, and there are sexy topics - all covered in an easy to read and engaging manner.
I seriously think that this is the type of writing that the new millenium needs.

To describe this book in any shorter terms would be selling it too short.

Feel free to email me personally if you want more advice!

really intimate look at the life of a rising star.
I picked up this book thanks to the advice of a friend(as if the cover wasn't enough). I was amazed at how well she articulates herself and her "adventures." I have to admit I fell in love with her writing style first, and then her second! She really bares all in this book - and it's all true she says!
I'll be lucky if I manage to have half of her adventures in my entire life!

It is a quick read, clearly separeted by subject/genre. Great evening material and definately inspiring. Also a fun book to read with a friend becuase it will surely inspire lots of dialogue/curiosity...and maybe even more.

Best.
