Reseñas de la Crítica

"Bottom line: funky, sexy, reading." (Bust)
"(Susie Bright) is the absolute bomb." (Tristan Taormino, The Village Voice)

some ok some not

I enjoyed the stories that I found were my cup of tea, and skipped the others, but isn't that always the way in these type of compilations. I feel you will get your moneys worth but don't expect to like all of the stories.

Disappointed

Sorry,

I'm a huge fan of Susie Bright, but I didn't enjoy this. Production-wise, I didn't like the fact that each new story started abruptly, actually before you realized that the last one was over. If there had been a longer silence, or preferably some music, it would have flowed better.

Fun Stories to Pick and Choose From

This is a good collection of erotic stories. Not every story is to my taste so I just skip forward as desired. Some are hard core and others fairly tame. I agree that the stories begin and end abrubtly and would prefer a more recognizable gap between them. If you enjoy written erotica, this is worth a try.

What happened to BAE 2002?

Seeing the title 'erotica' lends my imagination that Susie Bright will once again provide the listener/reader with enjoyable product. This was a good listen. I only hope that the "Best of ..." series will continue to bring us past as well as future editions.

Do Not Waste Your Time

This is a ridiculous book, not erotica but more of a laborious accouting of how good certain authors are and how the book came together, mostly gay and mostly boring. Do not waste your time.
