 (...) Feb 28, 2006
By Paul
I am researching swinging and clearly assumed this was something it isn't. I'd hoped it would have some insight, or at least something interesting or fun to offer. I was so annoyed with this book I almost sent it back to Amazon, and still might.
The first thing you will notice is the schizophrenic typesetting, which is somehow meant to look like a diary but mostly insults the senses and makes it harder to read. It was done in a series of over-sized script-like fonts using 16 or 18 pt type. What you get after that is 102 pages of so-called journaling which is so uninspiring that it's difficult to describe. Let's just say on page 6 the guy writes in huge caps about his partner "THIS WOMAN IS NEVER, EVER A SLUT! She just likes sex - a lot --as most women do." And it goes downhill from there as she has mindless sex with every guy at Hedonism, who, by the way, are all incredible looking hunks while her husband watches and drools.
If you are looking for something steamy to read, go to the erotica readers and writers website. Heck, if you're so hard up for stimulation that you'd read something like "Swinging," go to the nearest cement wall and bang your head against it. (...)You will learn nothing about swinging from this book except to hope that you never, ever meet people like these with your clothes on or off.

 Why I bought the book May 19, 2008
By Romeo
I bought this book partly because I was intrigued by the scathing review by "Paul". I wondered why such a highly educated journalism critic would take the time to write such a lengthy review. Me thinks he protests too much! Now I'm certain! (I would hardly call Terry's ejaculations "drooling".)
I got exactly what was advertised. Salacious sex. Real stories by real people. So real as to be almost un-real. These are not fantasies by erotica writers. Nor are they purported to be. Even so, I thought the writing was above average.
The multiple fonts helped me keep track of which one was writing and which parts were the original. And what's wrong with large type? Could it be that you object to buying that many pages? This book could not have been edited since it was the original diary.
I admit that these stories provide little insight into swinging. But they led me to wonder more about the authors and how they had come to be in the lifestyle, so I bought the "Big Book". Frankly, I got a little tired of the detailed descriptions of the sex act. But my wife loves it! She even keep it at her bed-side so she can re-read Patty's intimate stories and "Share her pleasure".
