3.5
informative relaxing medium-paced

So close! I like pretty much everything that is there, but what isn't there is kind of glaringly not there.

Pros:
- clear language
- useful diagrams / images
- non gendered, uses "people who have vaginas" and "you" as main descriptors
- goes over puberty very clearly
- talks of differently shaped bodies
- non-shamey

Cons:
- doesn't discuss any type of sex beyond piv, beyond a vague "get with the times" from a cartoon character in the margin and a warning in the STIs section that people with vaginas can give each other STIs. 
- no mention of pleasure. Closest it gets is the page on masturbation, but even that page is rather clinical. 
- gender page explaining identity/expression/trans/etc feels stilted, like it was pulled out of a dictionary. 
- no sexual identity page to go with the gender identity page
- doesn't discuss dating at all, which would be fine but feels odd in a book that does discuss sexting and coercion and STIs without any positive examples to go with the negatives
- no mention of miscarriage or abortion in the descriptions of pregnancy and childbirth
