Penthouse: Between The Sheets - cd discontinued by Random House Audio - review by Phoenixrising

I’ve always been a fan of storytelling, which is why I was thrilled to be receiving the audio version of Penthouse: Between the Sheets|Penthouse: Between The Sheets. I’ve listened to erotic audio online, but the idea of 9 hours of someone else telling me erotic stories was exciting.

I was not disappointed when the discs arrived. I set my CD player next to my bed, plugged in headphones, grabbed my trusty vibrator and climbed under the covers. I was worried that the stories might be male-dominated fantasies, but they were very well-rounded. I am a huge fan of lesbian erotica and found those stories to be some of my favorite – descriptive, sensual and creative.

The recording quality is high. The three women who read the stories have very different voices from each other; they are all extremely pleasant sounding and very sensual. 8 discs, 9 hours and 36 stories is a great bargain. I give it 4 stars.

My main complaint is that there in no table of content. Because of this, I’ve provided a content list below. In some places, I had to guess at the spelling of author names, so I’m sorry if they’re misspelled.

I still continue to return to these discs, with a number of favorite stories being listened to many times. I imagine I'll eventually break down and add the stories to iTunes, but I haven't quite figured out how to explain them to my more conservative friends who sometimes scroll through my iPod. Any suggestions?
