Sex Ed: A Guide for Adults by Ruby Rare

5.0

---

I don’t normally give books star ratings anymore, but this was a clear 5 stars for me. I’ve been following Ruby Rare on Instagram for a while now and am so excited she published her first book! This was so well done, from the structure of the book to the illustrations (love how explicit they were btw) to the content to the tone...all so good! It’s a great reference, but I also liked the little prompts to encourage self-reflection. I do wish there had been more prompts in the later chapters (seemed like they were mostly concentrated in the beginning). The whole book was like a warm hug - so welcoming and inclusive and validating. I’ll definitely be revisiting this one in the future. I’d recommend it for any adult who’s interested in expanding their sex/relationship knowledge beyond their high school sex ed class (and random Google searches). Really a great, well thought out resource. Highly recommend!
