Think you know everything about sex? Think again! This funny and true story of one woman's journey to reclaim her sexuality on the fringes of New York City's sex and dating world will make you think twice about everything there is to learn about sex!    Meet Olive Persimmon. Growing up, she looked exactly like Danny DeVito, except she was thirteen and a girl. By some miracle, she grew into a relatively normal, well-adjusted thirty-something woman living in New York City--with one notable exception: she hasn't had sex in five years, one month, three days, two-point-five hours . . . and counting.   Faced with bona fide sex rut, she decides it's time to take action to save her love life and get her mojo back. Challenged by a friend to "say yes" to experiences she might normally avoid, Olive embarks on a series of adventures and explores everything from BDSM classes to cuddlers-for-hire, from foot fetishes to lessons with a top-ranked pickup artist, and more! Each awkward, funny, and sometimes downright embarrassing encounter brings Olive closer to discovering the power of saying yes--to herself, others, and life itself.    For fans of Jenny Slate, this is a funny, irreverent, and honest tale of one young woman's journey to reclaim her sexuality on the fringes of New York City's sex and dating world. Readers can see for themselves how this girl next door overcame insecurities around dating, sex, and love--all with openness, honesty, and a wicked sense of humor. Along the way, readers will wonder: Will Olive ever have sex again? Will her love life be okay? Will her toe fungus come back? Does she ever find her mojo, and where was it hiding? Weaving together the awkwardness of Mindy Kaling, the candor of Chelsea Handler, and Olive's own hilarious vulnerability, The Coitus Chronicles will encourage readers to explore their own sexuality and consider what surprises they may discover if they, too, just say yes.… (mehr)

Hilarious introduction! Loved how the writer pulled in the audience and gave real world perspectives and ideas. She really hits the head of what insecurities that come across in the world when it comes to sex and partnerships, being in relationships or lack thereof. There is a huge chance to relate to the author ( and I did), enjoyed reading this and will make sure others check this out. This is not just a book for women but even men could read this and feel a strong connection to the author or others she has introduced throughout the book. ( )

I will admit that I hesitated about entering this. Do I really want people knowing that I read something like this? Then I realized that I have entered a lot of chick-lit that is a lot steamier. While this book does discuss and describe sex, it doesn't do so in a sexy manner. And the final message is that all the various things she tried when she thought she wanted sex didn't do it for her, because what really worked for her was sex in a caring relationship. ( )
