"Kosher" sex is about motions that produce strong emotions...
I can't believe how long it took me to finally get around to reading this superb book (is there a ranking higher than five stars). On a semi-long flight, I'd almost finished it off in one sitting, but I hesitated, not wanting to gobble it up in one go. It was precious, ...

Opinion of Madrigal's Magic Key to Spanish

Larry Gonick

Main Street Books, 1997

Wow! If only high school/college history had been this fun and insightful
