Best things about this cover:

  • Whoa. I was never a big "Seinfeld" fan, but maybe I need to reconsider …
  • I love how happy is to be warming her bare bottom with the flame of a single candle. It's the simple pleasures…
  • I am laughing so hard imagining the sad person sitting on the broken Merry-Go-Round of Sex.
  • Hmm. Define "Bestseller."
  • "Sex Before Six," the best-selling follow-up to "Fucking Before Five Fifteen."

Best things about this back cover:

  • I'd like to speak to the mayor.
  • "Jason Hytes has exposed their wanton merry-go-round of sex…" Wait, is this non-fiction? Did he go undercover, as it were?
  • At this point, if there is not an Actual Merry-Go-Round Of Sex in this book, I will be very, very disappointed, Jason Hytes.

Page 123~
Clay Brackett moved out of a group of men to block her path, his darkly handsome face flushed and lusting.

it reminds me of an old routine from 'Cheers':
Diane: where's the strangest place you've ever made love?'
Carla: On a carousel
Diane: Oh how romantic, I love the fairground!
Carla: Fairground? This was at the airport

The merry go round broke down. A rather looney selection for a bunch of drunken reprobates.

The Men's Rights Advocates blame the birth control pill for the "Carousel of C*ck" that emancipated young women ride-- until they settle down for a "nice" guy with a "good" job.

Someone must have read this book, or seen the cover.

I'm getting a Sophia Loren vib from the front cover. Anyone else?
