No

Although, I’m new to BDSM. This did not shed any light or answer the questions I thought it would. I’m curious because I am exploring my own sexuality. However, I feel like this book was not at all what I was looking for. It also references that BDSM is therapy. Which is not correct and should not be used in that way!

A little concerned

It seems that the flood of people who claim to understand the lifestyle and are so adamant about that may have read or listen to this book. While the information is mostly accurate many implications and statements are wrong or just rude.

Simple, straightforward concepts of BDSM

This is a short audiobook of fewer than 3 hours, and it introduced me to the wide world of BDSM and provided lifelong advice for even those who choose to be vanilla despite learning about it, namely: consent and communication are everything. It's never wise to violate the firm sexual boundaries of your partner and to never badger someone into having sex with you; these are part of the code that every person wanting a sexual relationship should maintain religiously.

Of course, learning about the various kinds of kinks, sex toys, and the suggestions of the author are also valid.

Loved it.

Great for quick reference

A good reference, but Wolf's writing style is very dry. I don't recommend trying to listen to this for leisure or in one straight shot unless you like being thrown a barrage of facts. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

good

This is a good beginner's guide to the alternative lifestyle and covers a majority of the basics that are needed to know.

Vanilla to Kinky

This book is for someone who is very new to the idea of BDSM and what it entails. It is a short book that gives you the basic ideas and definitions of the world and some of the things used and done within it. Much of the information is repeated in many of the chapters. The information enclosed is straightforward and easy to understand but very basic. Zachary Zeba’s narration is clear but a bit monotone.
