This is a collection of erotic short stories by a wide variety of well known authors. They include sexual situations that would be considered beyond traditional boundaries such as sex with a stranger, inappropriate locations and group sex. Read more
This softcover book includes an eclectic mix of taboos to excite the mind. It is geared toward women, which could be considered sexist. However, I see why it is labeled as such. The stories did not illicit much visualizing for me. Men tend to be more visual. There was more plot than in the erotica that leans more toward porn style. I would imagine that anyone could find at least one story that would "do it" for them. Read more

Passion
– With contributed stories by Donna George Storey, Jacqueline Applebee, Angela Caperton, Wickham Boyle, Suzanne V. Slate, Isabelle Gray, Lana Fox etc.
Passion is without a doubt one of the best collection of erotic short stories I've had the chance to read. It's not just about raw sexual passion, it's more about loving and yearning for someone in original ways. This book is like a chicken soup for the romantic single woman, it made me smile and even made me teary. Read more
This is a great little book for the romantic passionate side in all of us. While it is all heterosexual couples in the stories they are still worth reading. There is very little in the way of kink play but at the same time the stories didn't really need it. Read more
This is a naughty book that will keep your mind in the gutters and your hands in your pants. Excellent writing will keep you cumming back for more. Read more
Down and Dirty: 69 Super Sexy Short-Shorts is just the right title. This book is full of stories and fantasies all planned by different writers. It's sexy, it's descriptive and it'll leave you wanting to read yet another erotic novel. Read more
Do you like lesbians? Do you like lesbians having sex? Yes? Then this book is for you. 20 amazing short erotica pieces to cater to every taste. I promise you will not be disappointed. Read more
The stories in Best Lesbian Erotica 2011 are all well-written and contain a wide variety of locations, couples, and steamy sex. Whether on a ski lift or in an alley, on a train or in a house, the sex is hot and erotic, even when it’s brutal. While all of the stories may not appeal to all, Lea DeLaria has done a great job gathering tales that are as varied as their authors. Read more
Just Watch Me
– Elizabeth Coldwell's "Heat" describes the fierce affair between a barmaid and her brutish boss, a man she doesn't even like but who sets her heart pounding. In "Spike," Rachel Kramer Bussel gives us t
“This collection of the best erotica written by women, for women, is meant to be read nice and slow, like a slippery hot afternoon fuck on sweaty sheets, when you don’t want to eat… food.” Violet Blue Read more
A collection of short erotica stories that are meant for women (or anyone) who get off on plot more than reading about sex acts. Don't read this out loud to your partner unless you want them to NOT be turned on. I can't imagine the stories from this book doing very much for anyone, ever, in the department of arousal. Read more
Each story is crafted with unique and unexpected little touches. Even the vanilla stories raise an eyebrow in a sexy and amusing way. It's a delicious hot and hotter buffet of erotica. Read more
Although the stories weren't horrible, they did not appeal to me. I did not care for having to read through the book to have to find the story for my mood rather than having a short description of the type of story (such as, male/female, female/female, etc). Read more
I loved this book and it's hard to not put it down once you begin to read it! Have fun reading it while imaging what's going on in the book in your head. Read more
Afternoon Delight is a pleasant read, although nothing really stands out as being insanely hot. I can imagine reading some stories aloud to my boyfriend and being a lot more turned on than just reading quietly to myself. The stories are short enough to get through in a few minutes and they are all arousing to some degree. Read more
Sweet love
– With stories by Thomas Roche, Janine Ashbless, N.T. Morley, D.L. King, Andrea Dale, Kristina Wright, Emilie Paris, Kat Black, Kay Jaybee, Allison Wonderland and others.
This is by far the best introduction to modern erotica that I could have possibly been given! Thank you to Clies Press, editor Violet Blue, and all the authors who contributed to this amazing body of work. I can't wait to share it with my husband! Read more
Sweet Love does contain quite a few sweet stories. They won't "kill you with romance" or anything like that, but instead you'll get to enjoy couples opening up to each other and igniting new romances with each other. There are quite a few stories with an element of kink, but they aren't so hardcore as to be niche stories Read more
Every story in this anthology is well written, with characters who are more than just lust objects, and so each story feels honest and real. All types of relationships are represented, and there's variety among their encounters. If you're looking for romance novel heterosexual encounters with flowery terms for the naughty bits, look elsewhere. Likewise, try another volume for more extreme BDSM situations. But if you want a variety of tales somewhere in the middle, you've found your book. Read more
I’d definitely recommend this anthology. Through reading, I’ve learned more about myself and am reminded that Lust often transcends gender, a lot like love. Read more
If you’re submissive, or just enjoy reading about women submitting to their man, Please, Sir is a great book to pick up. The stories feature a variety of couplings and situations where the women submit and show their love for their men. You might even find a new idea or two for yourself. The stories are hot and you’ll likely find yourself returning to read them and get off to them again and again. Read more
Please Sir is a diverse collection of erotic tales that while holding some hot stories, may leave readers lukewarm and in need of more lurid details. Read more
Fast Girls is a great collection of erotica. The stories are all hot and encompass a variety of women and situations, although there are more that contain kink than others (not a bad thing for me). These Fast Girls don’t fit any one type, but they do all have one thing in common – they all go after what they want and need. This is probably the best erotica collection I've read. Read more
This collection of erotica has some good stories, but stumbles and falls on too many of them. Although some selections are well written and sexy, there are too many amateurish writings in the book and the collection simply doesn't hold together with a unified theme.
It has some bright spots, but Bussel needs to choose the selections more carefully. An attempt to bring erotica into the mainstream which doesn't work out for either mainstream or erotic as a whole. Read more
Ever wonder what sex was like in a time when batteries didn’t exist, and there were no wall sockets to plug in your favorite toy? What if you didn’t want to make do with live flesh? The stories in Carnal Machines explore sex, desire, and ingenuity in the Steam age with some amazingly exciting results. Read more
For those who love reading about Victorian lovers, “Carnal Machines” provides fourteen stories set in the suppressed sensuality of that “steamy” era. The stories cover a variety of sexual scenarios from hetero to homo to BDSM, though there is a little too much emphasis on steam powered sex machines and not enough elements of actual steampunk. Not all of the stories are equally good, but overall, it is a very satisfying read. Read more
When girls are on top and dominating the sexual environment, it becomes a spine-tingling experience to yield complete control to someone else's fantasy. This explicit erotica of short stories will leave you lusting for downright nasty, exhilarating, empowering, submissive and tender moments of women who break all the rules to getting off! Read more
While this book doesn't include the typical scenes of women encased in leather running their own dungeons, it does showcase extremely strong women in control of their sexual appetites, making their own decisions and being girls on top! Read more
Sweet Life is a wonderful book for couples longing to live out their fantasies together. The stories were well written and allowed you to get to know the characters behind the sexual acts. The erotica was to the point, and there was not too much extraneous fluff added. I enjoyed reading the varying fantasies of the couples presented in the book, and it opened my mind to personal fantasies that I didn't know I had. Read more
Despite the fact that I was hoping for more queer content, I was extremely pleased with Sweet Life. While most of the stories were quite short, all of the characters were fully-fleshed and not just simply names attached to kinky actions. Even without any explicitly gay or lesbian stories, I believe that Sweet Life offers enough variety in its kinks and characters to offer something for everybody. Read more
Frenzy. 60 Stories of Sudden Sex
– For those who like their erotica in a pinch, Frenzy offers a charming, romantic, and sexy collection of super-short stories.
I found this book of short stories sexy and totally worth the price. This compilation of "quickie" stories - most no more than a few pages, were concise and erotic. And while the sex described wasn't always as naughty as you'd expect from the title, most of the encounters were worth a second read - and then a third. Read more
This book has many various stories to choose from and includes a very wide range of kinks. Some of the stories aren't all that exciting to me and some were very tedious to read. The overall feel of the book was disturbing rather than exciting for me. Read more
The erotic anthology Caught Looking, edited by both Alison Tyler and Rachel Kramer Bussel, is an amazing collection of 20 stories about voyeurism and exhibitionism in various sexy situations. They are all equally good and very erotic. Seriously, it was hard putting it down. Read more
This book is a lot of fun to read if you are into watching other people have sex. The majority of the stories are believable and you could relate well to the characters. This is a book that I will read over and over. Read more
The Story of O is a journey of one woman as she discovers what it truly means to be submissive. She goes through many changes through the book and it's so intriguing to read about it. It can be an introduction or a new insight into BDSM. I'd recommend not reading the blurb if you don't want too much of the story revealed!! Read more
Personally, I couldn't finish this book fast enough. It took forever to read because I found it tiresome to drudge through the horrible writing style. Read more
The book Fairy Tale Lust was everything that I expected, except for one thing; it was not as erotic as I would have wished. Still, I read through the whole book very quickly and enjoyed every single story. This book is a keeper. Read more
Overall it was a very entertaining and fast read. I found myself taking my time with this book, even though the stories weren't that long. I read a couple of stories here and there until I was finished. It might not keep you up all night wanting to finish, but it is a book that you don't wish you had your time back after you finished reading it. Definitely worth a second look. Read more
Best Sex Writing 2010 is a delectable sampler of short essays about the most surprising sex-related subjects. Each piece has its own flavor—some speak whimsically of sexual anatomy, others are reflections of personal experiences, and still others examine pop culture and politics and how they affect our sex lives. There is something exciting, intriguing, and eye-opening for every reader who approaches this collection with an open mind. Read more
If you feel a frisson at the thought of getting it on at twenty thousand feet - or being naughty while behind the yolk yourself - there's undoubtedly going to be something you enjoy in this well-written anthology. Read more
An exciting mix of stories about seduction and sexual escapades all focusing in the setting of airports and planes. Interesting scenes and changing story moods. Read more
Five Minute Erotica is a collection of short erotic stories that one can read when they do not have much time. There are 35 stories, so most will find something that interests them. Read more
If you're looking for short little snippets of sex and lust you might really enjoy this collection of stories. For me I find them to be best used as a tease to spark my interest and to then ponder about what maybe I think happened after the story ends or just start thinking about how that story might play out in real life. They're fun reads, they're incredibly sexy and might even spark a new fantasy for you. Read more
The Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Tales, edited by D. L. King includes 19 erotica vampire tales from 19 contributing authors. It has 195 pages of erotica that has one thing in common: sex with a bite. It is a deep, cold, and exciting collection of vampires tales that will leave the hair standing up on your neck. Read more
Though I'm not a fan of vampires myself, I decided to check this book out just for the heck of it. What I found is that I'm still not into vampires and it might just be that every story I've ever read about them has been poorly written. Bad writing turns me off and this book was full of it, save for a few stories. Read more
I did not find this book exciting, and in fact skipped or skimmed many sections to get to the good stuff. I like the fairy-tale-turned-dirty concept, but the story didn't have enough raw, dirty sex for me. Read more
Certainly one of the most important books about female sexuality you can own. In addition to being an important part of the study of modern sexuality, Forbidden Fantasies is also a highly erotic read and will be a book you choose to 'dip into' again and again. Read more
This book is definitely hopping up in my favorite list of erotica. The stories are believable and compelling, sweet, sexy, and seductive. There is a little something for everyone - queer couples, BDSM, fun with toys, transgender stories, and many, many more! This book is a great read for lesbians young and old, or anyone just looking for some greatly written erotica! Read more
This book is spectacular. It's a fun starter for a growing collection of erotic, lesbian fiction. There is so much variety, and you're bound to find something that you'll love. The variety is nice because it's great for different moods and for people like my partner and I, who don't like only just one thing! Read more
Foreign Affairs
– Foreign Affairs is an Erotic Travel Tale published by Cleis Press edited by Mitzi Szereto presents luminous erotica with the subtle, sexy undercurrent of unfamiliar waters.
“Foreign Affairs” contains 21 very well-written tales of erotic encounters in (mostly) exotic settings. (A few of the stories take place in the US.) Although most of the stories are fairly vanilla and heterosexual, there are a few mild kinks and some homosexuality. If you are looking for some heavy BDSM or lots of gay/lesbian stories, you will probably be disappointed, but if all you want is a good selection of beautifully written erotic stories, you will probably enjoy this anthology. Read more
It's like that great vacation you always dreamed of... but the flight encounters turbulence, the airline screws up your vegetarian meal and loses your luggage, the hotel can't find your reservation, and you realize too late you should not have drank the water. It was a sound idea for a collection, but the execution gets a thumbs down from me. Read more
Pleasure Bound is a collection of erotic stories that focus around the theme of bondage. Although the stories each offer something different, they are catered to heterosexuals. I found this collection to be a very good read and should be a hit among those interested in this type of sexual fun. Read more
If there's one thing this book can do is give you a plethora of ideas for a kinky, fun night with a partner. These stories are based on real life encounters which makes them all the more interesting to read. The different scenarios are bound to keep you reading and wanting more. Read more
An exciting sex slave story based on the story sleeping beauty. This book has something to offer for everyone since it touches many different things such as same sex intercourse, bdsm, and anything you can think of. Read more
Book two of the Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice is nothing to bat an eye at. Part of it will bore you sleep, but then you'll wake your ass up when there's cats suckling clits. For a second there we do find some character depth, but not with Beauty. If you've read book one and just can't help but read this one thinking it gets better, it really doesn't, and you'll feel bad. Just saying. Read more
Adapted adult literary fairytales will not be everyone's niche. However if it fits into a niche that you would find yourself enjoying I would recommend this collection in a heartbeat. So please note that my rating is based solely off of my preference for it, not how much it will fit you. Read more
In Sleeping Beauty's Bed in a nice collection of eroticized fairy tales that just manage to miss the mark, somehow, and come off as quirky rather than sexy. Read more
The erotica contained in He's on Top kept me fascinated from the beginning to the end. It was obviously about male dominance over women, but more importantly it was loving. The women were actually lucky to be under the control of such men and I would definitely recommend this book for anyone shy of trying domination for the first time. You know, just in case you might think it would be hard to include love in fetishes. Read more
I hoped this would be a collection accessible to those not into BDSM (i.e. me!) but I found myself unaroused by most of the content. There are a few gems nestled within, but I don't know if I can justify to others shelling out the cash when I dislike so many of the stories. Read more
