A brilliant guide providing both reassurance and knowledge. The book I needed to read as a teenager, but which is also a great read as a young adult. Milly has done a wonderful job - the lay out and structure of this book is fab.

I wish this book had existed when I was 13-15 (the advised age rating according to Amazon). There is so much information in this book that would have been incredibly helpful to me at that age and later on in my teens.
That said, I have learnt these things the hard way, means I didn't learn anything from this book personally. But then, I'm not the target audience for this book.
Should I ever find myself in a situation to recommend a book on this topic to someone of the target age group (or a parent of), I will definitely be including this book as a starting point.

Definitely targeted for teens or preteens as I didn't find any of the information new, but it is a good overview and includes good information for those that are lgbtq+

This is an excellent beginners guide. I would have benefitted tremendously if I read it when I was in middle school or high school. I was not the target audience of this book however, Evans did an astounding job by giving an introduction to all things taboo surrounding sex.
