As a reader of Shirl Solomon's Small Deception, I have a message for the author. I was impressed with the psychological storyline as well as the rhythm of the writing. Childhood traumas can so affect the mind as to cause life-long problems. I am happy that Beth and family found love and closure in the end. A Good Book, Shirl. And all you readers out there are in for a real treat as you peruse this psychological thriller.()

Graphic Sex is a book I wish was available 20 years ago, but it's never too late! This racy, in many ways sound volume, has something for everyone, even if there is no lover on the horizon. Selecting one of four pictures that appeals to you, and then to your mate, you find yourself discussing your compatibilities in ways you never communicated before. A compendium in the back of the book explains how Mrs. Solomon derived her sketches. A copy should be on your coffee table--oops!make that night table.

Not only does this book arouse one's healthy interest in our hidden, deceptive?, sensual side of our personality, but it also delicately and delightfully helps us to understand our basic, instinctual motives and actions and how to change and improve them. Ms. Solomon's interpretations are done so in a highly intelligent, respectful manner and are well supported by valid studies which makes this book worth reading. After taking the tests in the book, my friend and I arrived at a more honest place in our relationship, understand our different sexual needs better, and can now go forward with the improvement suggestions the author offers. It is much more than what we imagined and honestly well worth the price. But it doesn't sit long enough on my coffee table, getting dog-eared; when company arrives they can't resist browsing and they are always amazed at the accurate test results. Hope there is another book in the making by Shirl Solomon; she has such a keen insight into human nature. Written by a pleased owner of "Graphic Sex", By The Sea in Central NJ.

I recently purchased this book and I must say that I found it intelligently written with an underlying sense of humor. It was very informative and the illustrations are successfull in getting the reader really involved. I want to add that I found the illustrations intreaguing and beautifully designed.
