Boink: College Sex by the People Having It is a coffee table book that recently came out from the creators of BOINK sex mag. BOINK’s description of the book is so good that we lifted it straight off the press release: “BOINK is what happens when a group of undergrads from Boston University decide to publish a sex magazine. Now comes their explosive book, the definitive college guide to carnal knowledge. Openly exploring sexual themes that are relevant to all men and women, these 4-color, beautifully designed pages are filled with never-before-published true stories, prescriptive advice, graphic confessions, and no-holds-barred nude pictures of real university students (not the fake “college co-eds” all over the internet). With student contributors from named major universities, BOINK vividly details what goes on under the dorm room sheets across the country.” This is a great concept, and the book is a steal at just over $12 new on Amazon.
