Sex Toy Story

By Brad Gosse

Sex Toy Story... To Infinity, And No Thank You, And Actually Fine, And This Is Happening

When parents go to sleep, their toys will play. But tomorrow is another day... a Valentine's Day, specifically, and certain items in the bedside drawer have been reflecting on their situation, their purpose, and what it means to be a toy that exists in a specific adult context. This book is the Toy Story that Pixar passed on. The toys have feelings. The toys have rivalries. The toys have opinions about the newer toys and the situation in the drawer and where they stand in the hierarchy. It is an ensemble story. The ensemble is toys. The specific kind is in the title.

This adult parody book takes the beloved animated movie structure... toys with personalities, toy relationships, toy existential crises... and applies it to an adult product category that has never received this narrative treatment despite being an obvious fit for the format. The toys want to be played with. The toys have feelings about when they're not. The drawer dynamics are political. The Valentine's Day timeline creates urgency. This is a heist story. The heist involves toys. Everything is fine and also everything is a lot.

This Book IS For: Adults who watched Toy Story and thought "but what about the other kind of toys" and then needed a bookFans of parody that takes a beloved IP, identifies the obvious adult extension, and executes it with total commitmentAnyone who has ever personified an inanimate object and felt some empathy for its situationGift-givers attending a Valentine's Day event or bachelorette party where the theme has already been establishedThis Book Is NOT For: People who consider Toy Story a sacred text that should not be extended into product categories it didn't originally coverReaders who need their toy characters to have been manufactured with children in mindAnyone who will now be unable to watch the original Toy Story without thinking about this book's premiseValentine's Day gift recipients who were expecting something in a more traditional registerAppropriate For: Valentine's Day... this is the Valentine's Day book; no further research is requiredBachelorette parties where the theme is "adult content delivered through beloved childhood formats"White elephant exchanges where everyone in the room will immediately understand what has happenedGag gifts for the Toy Story fan in your life who also has a sense of humor about the full toy ecosystemWhy Buy This

The toys in your bedside drawer have an inner life. This has never been addressed in illustrated form until now. They have feelings about their schedule. They have opinions about the newer models. They have an existential relationship with Valentine's Day that this book documents with the same earnest character-development energy that made the original movie work. The premise is obvious once you see it. The book is the proof that it was waiting to be written. Buy it. The toys waited long enough.

Valentine's Day gifts are typically: flowers, chocolates, jewelry. One of those things lasts. The others are consumed or wilt within a week. This book lasts, generates more conversation than flowers, and acknowledges the full reality of the Valentine's Day ecosystem in a way that a box of chocolates cannot manage. To infinity. And other places. The toys have things to do. The book documents it. Happy Valentine's Day.
