Anmerkung: Zur Handlung des Buches gibt es keine Angaben, da es sich bei “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust” um ein Sachbuch handelt, welches keine Handlung aufweist.

Allgemein betrachtet, gehandelt das Buch, wie der Titel schon vermuten lässt, das Thema Beziehung und Sex.

Ute Horn´s Buch “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust”, behandelt in insgesamt neun Kapiteln (zusätzlich zu Vorwort, Nachwort und Einleitung), dass Thema Liebe und Sex.

Die Autorin Ute Horn beschäftigt sich in ihrem Leben, viel mit dem Thema des Buches und hat daher eine gute Voraussetzung, ein solches Sachbuch zu schreiben. Dabei kommt das Buch auch nicht, um die christliche Meinung zum Thema umher. Anfangs hatte ich davor Sorge, dass die christliche Meinung überwiegt, allerdings musste ich feststellen, das sie zwar präsent ist, sich allerdings in Grenzen hält.

Die verschiedenen Kapitel, sind sehr informativ und anschaulich gestaltet. Untermauert werden die Informationen durch Beispiele, die aus dem wahren Leben stammen sollen. Man findet auf vielen Seiten, kleine Herzchen, die wichtige Dinge, nochmals in Kurzform aufzeigen. Außerdem gibt es, nach jedem Thema oftmals noch mal die wichtigsten Informationen, in Kurzform, zum merken aufgelistet. Manchmal gibt es hier sogar einige Tipps, die dem Leser an die Hand gegeben werden.

Gibt sich die Autorin größte Mühe, die verschiedenen Themen so umfangreich wie möglich zu beleuchten, so viel mir besonders beim Thema Abtreibung auf, dass größtenteils nur negatives zu lesen ist. Hier hätte ich mir auch gerne die Seite gewünscht, das die Gründe einer Abtreibung bzw. die für eine Abtreibung sprechen, ebenfalls angesprochen werden. Ebenso beim Thema der Selbstbefriedigung ist mir die Behandlung etwas zu einseitig geraten. Hier passen einige der Aussagen, auch nicht wirklich zur heutigen Zeit, zumindest in meinen Augen.

Was im Buch allerdings oftmals angesprochen und am Ende auch durchaus mitgenommen werden kann, ist die Tatsache, dass jeder Mensch eben verschieden ist. So ist es auch in der Liebe und Sexualität.

Zum Schluss endet das Buch “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust” genau so, wie es angefangen hat, mit einem passenden Zitat.

Cover: Das Cover von “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust” zeigt zwei junge Menschen, die übereinander auf einer grünen Wiese liegen. Hier zeigt das Cover also schon, um welche Zielgruppe das Buch geht. Im Hintergrund sind noch einige Blumen zu sehen. Über den Köpfen der Jugendlichen befindet sich der Titel des Buches, welcher sich sehr gut vom Hintergrund abhebt. 

Ich finde das Cover, wirkt zwar etwas nüchtern und gehört sicher nicht zu den ausgefallensten Covern, passt jedoch zum Buch selbst (besonders im Hinblick auf die Zielgruppe).

Fazit: “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust” ist ein gut strukturiertes Buch, über Sex und Liebe. Übersichtlich und gut zu lesen, behandelt es verschiedene Themen, die sich mit Liebe und Sex beschaffen. Einige Kapitel sind dabei leider, etwas zu einseitig behandelt worden und passen eventuell auch nicht mehr wirklich, zur heutigen Zeit.

Am Ende komme ich zu einer Bewertung von 3/5 Sterne, für “Sehnsucht, Sex und frommer Frust”.

Klappentext: Erlaubt ist, was Spaß macht! - Aber wohin dann nur mit der Sehnsucht nach Liebe? Es scheint, dass die Generation Praktikum ihre Praktikums Gewohnheiten auch auf die Bereiche Liebe, Sex und Partnerschaft ausgedehnt hat. Die erfahrene Referentin Dr. Ute Horn möchte Grundlagen für eine erfüllende Sexualität (in der Ehe) legen. Sie motiviert, sich Zeit zu lassen und zu einer reifen Persönlichkeit zu werden. Das Leben kann auch im Stand des Singles schön und erfüllend sein, denn Sexualität ist kein Hobby. Mit diesem Buch entdecken wir Gottes Gebote als schützende Richtlinien für den Alltag und den Umgang mit anderen Menschen. Gottes Gebote engen nicht ein, sondern ermöglichen ein sinnvolles und glückliches Leben. (Quelle: Hänssler)

This was an okay read for me. I have had this book for a long time but never got around to reading it for one reason or another. I decided to give the audiobook a try and think that it was a good choice. I really didn't know a lot about the book before I got started with it and ended up rather surprised by the subject matter. It was a good surprise. This was a book that I ended up liking some parts much more than others but am glad I picked it up.

This book is set right after the Korean War in the small town of Conroy. The book does include quite a few points of view and I found it a bit hard to keep up at times. Once I realized there was a vampire in the book, I felt a bit of a thrill since I had no idea this book would include anything out of the ordinary. I liked that the vampire in this story isn't sparkly or sexy. This is a dark evil kind of vampire. 

I wasn't really too much of a fan of the characters in this book. The only two characters that appealed to me at all was Corinne and Ruth. There were some pretty horrible characters in this book. Elijah's mom was dreadful on really every level. The judge was equally horrible but had control over much of the town. Really everyone besides and Corinne and Ruth were just awful but I do think that was as the author intended it to be. 

Despite not liking most of the characters, I was curious about how everything would work out in the story. There are a lot of hidden secrets in the town of Conroy and it was very eye-opening when they were revealed. There were parts of the story that really had me at the edge of my seat but I felt that the book was rather uneven at times. 

Angela Dawe did a great job with the narration. This book had a large cast of characters and I thought she did a great job with all of them. I thought that she added a lot of excitement to the story and I found it quite easy to listen to the book for hours at a time. I wouldn't hesitate to listen to more of her work.

I am glad that I gave this book a try. I think that a lot of readers will enjoy this story a bit more than I did. I would definitely read more from J.D. Horn in the future.

I received a digital review copy of this book from Amazon Publishing - 47th North via NetGalley and borrowed a copy of the audiobook from Kindle Unlimited.

Initial Thoughts
This was okay. I found some parts of the story to be better than others but I feel like the story as a whole will prove to be rather forgettable. There were a lot of characters to keep track of in the town of Conroy and more than a few of them drove me nuts. It was interesting how everything started to connected to each other and I liked the vampire aspect of the story. I thought that the narrator of the audiobook did a great job with the story.

ORN GATE: Open at your own risk.

Librarian Isaac Stein spends his lumpy, lonely days restoring forgotten books, until the night he steals an invitation to a scandalous club steeped in sin. Descending into its bowels, he accidentally discovers Scratch, a wounded demon who feeds on lust.

Consorting with a mortal is a bad idea, but Scratch can't resist the man who knows how to open the portal that will free him and his kind. After centuries of possessing mortals, he finds himself longing to surrender.

To be together, Isaac and Scratch must flirt with damnation and escape an inhuman trafficking ring—and they have to open their hearts or they will never unlock the Horn Gate.

Review

There is a lot of to be had in this dense smoke and mirrors paranormal story. 

I really love a plain Joe hero but he gets transformed here and while that worked with the plot we didn't get enough time in the story to think about this process.

The mythology is great as we take a deep dive into Jewish folklore but sometimes the smoke is a bit too thick in these aspects of the tale even though the prose and is fun.

Overall, I needed more romance with Scratch and more detail.
