Naked Reader Book Club Discussion: Just Watch Me (March 22, 8-10 PM EST)

Contributor: Kristina Wright Kristina Wright
Welcome to the Naked Reader Book Club discussion! Tonight's book is Just Watch Me, edited by the incomparable Violet Blue!

Violet Blue, quickly becoming the 21st century's leading sex educator, recommends reading Just Watch Me nice and slow so every outrageous scenario can be savored. She judiciously handpicked these sizzling stories from her Best Women's Erotica series. Intended as inspiration for bedroom adventures, this heady collection of erotica stories is filled with scintillating, relatable encounters.

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 turn-ons of a different kind, when a young goth girl shows a pushy "man's man" who wears not just the pants, but the spike-heeled shoes. Once again, Blue has compiled a book that is both sexy and surprising and as literary as it is libidinous.

****

The connection between fantasy and reality often blurs when it comes to erotica that blends hot sex with realistic encounters. Here, Violet has hand-picked a collection of stories meant to inspire real-life erotic adventures. So, did it work for you? Does erotica in general motivate you beyond the page or your imagination?

As always, whether you've read the book or not, everyone is welcome to join the discussion! If you've read the book, drop in and tell us which stories you liked, which you didn't, what scenarios intrigued you (or seem lifted from your own experiences!) and what you'd like to read next! If you haven't read the book, come find out if you should add Just Watch Me to your must-be-read list immediately! The conversation is certain to be lively and filled with all sorts of fun tangents! And I happen to know there will be prizes given throughout the discussion, so you won't want to miss a single breathless moment!

Hi sexyintexas! (and anybody else who is new tonight)

Your first step in joining us is to come back this evening to this thread and chat with us...

Then, you'll want to plan to pick up one (or both) of the two books we've selected for next month.

In April we are reviewing Got A Minute?—60 second erotica edited by Alison Tyler and Carrie's Story an erotic BDSM novel by Molly Weatherfield.

-If you are an experienced reviewer (have achieved advanced status) you can even request to do a review of the book—just email me with your book choice.

-If you are interested in doing a video reading of an excerpt from the book you are reviewing in exchange for an EdenFantasys Gift Card, you can email me for information on that also!

-Finally, if you are a blogger and have been doing testimonials for EdenFantasys, rather than reviews, you can contact me about doing a testimonial on your blog in exchange for receiving the book as well.

And certainly, if you have any additional questions, feel free to email me any time!

I'm so glad I remembered tonight's meeting and didn't have anything else going on. I think I was actually out of town for the last one.

It's hard to choose, but I'd say "Utterly Nondescript." It's about a woman who is so normal at work that she'd be the person you'd forget was in the room if she was sitting next to you. But when she leaves the office she becomes a different person who is vivid and a bit wild. She goes to a sex club and has sex with a whole bunch of people. I guess what captured me the most was the description of her transformation from completely forgettable to completely not.

This is a project I was working on earlier this year, before I took over as Editor of SexIs. I need to get it back on track. For those of you familiar with video reviews, this is similar, except that you are producing a 2-3 minute video of yourself reading an excerpt from one of the Naked Reader books.

If you are comfortable showing your face, that's great, but you can also get creative and shoot angles that hide your face with the book or something similar, if showing your face doesn't work for you. In exchange, we are offering $10 gift cards for these videos. Email me if you are interested—and let me know which book (and which story from the anthology( you'd like to do (right now, any book you already own, that has been on the Naked Reader list is eligible for the program.)

It's definitely a collection of great, sexy stories, but there were quite a few that I've read in other books.
