Det er midsommer og ugen op til et bryllup. Et vennepar skal giftes.

Kvæde føler sig endelig hjemme i sin krop og er klar til at holde et skov-rave, men der er børn, der skal puttes, og Gry har taget sin kæreste Adam med, der går rundt og ligner en reklame for heteroseksualitet.

Næsten alle voksne mennesker har prøvet at få en, men hvad er en orgasme egentlig? Og kan det virkelig passe, at klitoris først blev opdaget i 1998? Orgasmebogen er en tegneserie, der handler om seksualitet og lyst. På satirisk og lettilgængelig vis belyser den emnet igennem en blanding af fakta og fiktion. Trods øget viden og fokus på sex generelt i samfundet er der stadig mange tabuer om emnet. For eksempel viser nyere undersøgelser, at to ud af tre kvinder ikke får orgasme med deres partner under sex, imens stort set alle kvinder gør, når de onanerer.Med udgangspunkt i bogens tre hovedpersoner inddrages historiske facts om særligt kvinders seksualitet, nyere forskning, videnskabelige data og centrale begreber og teorier.

Deborah overlever mentalt og følelsesmæssigt ved i smug at begynde at studere litteratur. Efterhånden får hun styrke og mod til at lægge en plan: Hun må kræve skilsmisse for at kunne forlade det lukkede miljø – det store spørgsmål er, om hun kan få lov at beholde sin lille søn?
