Interesting little book full of questions, this time about relationships, love, and sex. I have a few of these type of books, but this is the first I've found with a particular theme.
A wide variety of questions even within this theme, and a *lot* of good conversation-starters... if you can work up the nerve to ask people! Many of these questions would be too awkward asking most of my friends, and many are things that couples could possibly end up fighting over (what's your position on prostitution, would you turn your spouse in for a crime, etc). So seriously, ask others with caution!

Another great book from Gregory Stock. I have found both of the books I've read to be genuinely helpful and still "fun". I find myself pulling them both out at our impromtu get-togethers with friends as a way to spark discussions and foster good times.
More questions, these on a theme. Good as a party game for the right group of people.
