Hot for Words by Marina Orlova

Hot for Words by Marina Orlova

"Hot for Words" combines the enticing stories behind everyday words, erotic or not, with even more enticing, never-before-seen, full-colour photos of Marina as she teaches us about words she loves. From 'blurb' to 'booby,' 'humble pie' to 'hooker,' 'floccinaucinihilipilification' to 'f---,' not a single one of Marina's lessons on English word origins is boring. Organised like the high school curriculum you wish you'd had, Marina takes students from Homeroom (The Bare Essentials) to Phys Ed (Uniforms Optional), History (Fully Exposed!), Science (The Laws of Attraction), Detention (You've Been Naughty), and more. Along the way, she provides pop quiz questions and interactive, online extra credit opportunities to fully engage readers. With full-colour photos throughout; a flirty, modern design; and tons of interesting trivia and information, there is no book in this category that is more entertaining, appealing, or fun.

Voted the Sexiest Geek of the Year and a Hottest Woman of the Web, Marina Orlova has degrees in Russian and English language instruction. Her popular YouTube channel has more than 170,000 subscribers, and she's a regular on The O'Reilly Factor. Marina lives in California.
