Fran Bushe is quite frankly, a life saver. This book changed my life and it will change yours too. This book is for everyone, whether you own a vagina or not, whether you are female or not, it is for you. This review will be personal and obviously the book does contain sexual content, so please be aware of that if that is something you are not comfortable with. This review will be written as a thank you letter to Fran, because she is incredible.

Dear Fran ,
First, thank you, the publishers and netgalley for the privilege of early access to your wonderful book. It was an honour to read your stories and I will most certainly be getting the physical form of this book and treasure it forever.
Next, Thank you for helping me realise I am not broken. That the body i am in capable of love and overcoming the challenges it is and will continue to face. For helping me know I'm not alone and I don't need to be ashamed. Because that is truly how I felt. My vagina is not broken just because I cannot have comfortable sex. Sex is a challenge, and it's not perfect a lot of the time (for anyone), and for me, it's rarely possible. It hurts, and that's okay. I'm on a journey to helping it stop hurting, but it will probably be a long one and that's okay too.
Last. Fran, you are amazing. The experiences you have shared have changed me. This book made me laugh (the illustrations are incredible), and this book has made me cry, and it was so cathartic. I realise now I am not alone, I am not broken, I am just Becca. Thank you for making me realise myself, realise I'm good enough the way I am, realise that there's other ways to be close to someone and that I'm not failing anyone. Thank you for writing the best book I've ever read, I will read this again and again. You were honest, and I am so grateful for that.

No words will ever be enough, but thank you for changing my life. This book will unleash a revolution of confident vagina owners/women all over the world. And you did that.
All my love, Becca.

PS. This book has huge LGBTQ+ rep within, and contains the experiences of hetero, homo and bi sexual couples, also those experiences of transgender women. It is a book for everyone, woman or not, vagina owner or not, everyone should read this.
