Eric Schaeffer

Running Press, 2007

Great book! -(if you're not sexually repressed and have an intelligent sense of humor)
I loved this book. I could not put it down! I wouldn't suggest it to just anyone, though. This book is not for you if you are a sexually repressed, uptight person. The humor in this book is crude at times, but always intelligent, in my opinion. I'm an instant fan ...
