One of my greatest turn-ons is sexual variance, especially when it's commercialized into a menu of different sexual services and locations. I had the biggest sexual-taxonomy boner flipping through this fabulous book. Lots of close-ups of brothel "menus" featuring anything from eyeglasses to "infinity shape" "breast service." It even has a (spoiler alert!) glossary. Excuse me, I need some time alone. ( )

Fascinating photo book that does what it says on the tin. Sinclair spent over a year trying to get access to the clubs and permission to take pics, which was hard enough being both a gaijin and a woman. That’s also why there aren’t all that many clubs covered, but she manages to capture the sheer variety of the types of clubs you can find, what’s allowed and what’s not. Typical for Japan, the sex club industry is as playful as it is imaginative. Very cool. ( )
