I appreaciate the author's frank way of talking about her sexuality, her honesty and enthusiasm for being experimental. I don't think there can be enough frank accounts of female sexuality. However, I really struggled with the style, which teetered between embarassment and a sort of dumbed down chumminess, making use of added letters, multiple exclamation marks and general "look at me, hihihi, isn't this silly." I don't think this style is necessarily very helpful for the topic.
