Beauty’s Book Review ~ Best Lesbian Erotica 2015 ~ Edited by Laura Antinou

Vanilla to Kink, the Sultry and the Sordid Best Lesbian Erotica 2015 ~ Edited by Laura Antinou Beauty’s Book Review As always, my opinion is my own and a paperback of the Best Lesbian Erotica 2015 was given to me by the good folks at Cleis Press. I started reading lesbian erotica regularly when I was in my twenties, and had two big stacks of books on and around my night stand just filled with lesbian anthologies, as I would read in bed. I liked Laura Antoniou’s introduction to the book telling of her first call for submissions twenty years ago. You actually had to put an ad in the paper, have authors write letters with their submission included, or use the phone to let people know what was needed. No internets for you then. The first sight I had of any computer with some sort of ‘internet’ connection was […]


Beauty’s Book Review: Better Sex In No Time by Josey Vogels

Better Sex In No Time by Josey Vogels ~ An Illustrated Guide for Busy Couples  Beauty’s Book Review Disclaimer: As usual my opinion is always my own for my book reviews. A paperback book was given to me by the good folks at Cleis Press so I could read in comfort and not stare at a screen; ie: my iPad. So to start, I have never read anything by Josey Vogels, so I wasn’t sure of her writing style and if the book would appeal to me since it is more aimed at male/ female pairings. Also that couple might be super busy with work and kids, and they did a lot of texting and emailing to keep in touch besides Twittering at each other. Her Amazon Author page is not as complete as her search results on Amazon, so you need to check back to keep up with what she […]


Beauty’s Book Review ~ Best Bondage Erotica 2015 #CleisPress

  Best Bondage Erotica 2015   From The Back Cover: Knotty Tales of Kinky Sex Powerhouse eroticist Rachel Kramer Bussel is at the vanguard of this new era of BDSM erotica. Always a step ahead of the zeitgeist, this award-winning editor knows your private fantasies even before you do. In these kinky tales, bondage happens as part of yoga, knitting and a birthday present, as well as with a collar, a cage, duct tape, a webcam, and a very sexy pair of thighs. In the foreword Annabel Joseph says, “To me, short stories and bondage go together as perfectly as subject and rigger, as top and bottom, as Mistress or Master and slave.” In Rob Rosen’s “Tying the Knot,” the bondage goes a little wild but there’s sweetness to this engagement story that tethers the protagonists close to each other. In “Bound to Lie” by Nichelle Gregory, two business adversaries […]


The Ultimate Guide to Sex After Fifty Blog Tour 2 comments

The Ultimate Guide to Sex After Fifty by Joan Price How to Maintain – or Regain – a Spicy, Satisfying Sex Life I’d have to say that Joan’s book, The Ultimate Guide to Sex After 50 is just that. I read it in one sitting of four hours, and it has so much good information in it, whether you are 50 + or younger than that. Jolynn is 52 and I am 48, so the book is totally relatable. I’m keeping her book forever to refer to when I need to look up resources because it’s that good. Many thanks to all the people who helped contribute their articles and information to the book to make it what it is. The good folks at Cleis Press gave me a paperback book to read at my request for the blog tour. My opinions are entirely my own, and I don’t usually go on […]
