These are the books I finished in the month of March in which I didn’t have time or words to elaborate on… Batman: The Killing Joke *** Two of my favorites team up for a Batman prose novel? Yes! But the end result is just okay. Interestingly enough, I think both writers do a better job with the random Gothamites than they do with the Caped Crusader and his primary nemesis. You’re fine just reading Alan Moore’s legendary graphic novel. The Big East: Inside the […]

Hades and Persephone: The New Power Couple

Neon Gods by Katee Robert

December 30, 2021 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

Neon Gods by Katee Robert was one of the few 2021 released books that I read. I succumbed to the hype around the premise of a modern retelling of the Persephone and Hades myth. In this sexy version of the Greek myth, Olympus is a modern city. The gods live in high-rise towers while the poor live closer to the ground. Zeus still rules but is more of a ruthless CEO with gangster tendencies. There are thirteen rich houses scheming for power. Most of them […]

Cannonball Read After Dark: Surprise!

Best Women's Erotica of the Year, Volume 7 by Rachel Kramer Bussel

November 26, 2021 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

You can trust that Rachel Kramer Bussel is going to put together a good anthology. Best Women’s Erotica of the Year, Volume 7 is thoughtful with a wide range of stories. I don’t expect to like every story in an anthology, and erotica is tougher because it taps into a place that can be rawly personal. When Kramer Bussel puts an anthology together, I know I will at least appreciate most of the stories. My only complaint about the book is one I frequently have about […]

Not for me, thanks.

This way lies madness. And it is glorious.

A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Kathryn Moon

Y’all. Y’all. Y’ALL. I really don’t know where to start with this one. At the beginning, I suppose. I have recently fallen down the rabbit hole that is TikTok. It took awhile for the algorithm to figure me out, but eventually it got me to BookTok. Specifically SmutTok. It was here that I first heard of a novel by Kathryn Moon entitled A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor. I cannot believe that I am about to type this particular combination of words, but here goes: For […]

“Oh my God. My fantasy crush is a gynecologist. My gynecologist.”

Wrong by Jana Aston

June 30, 2021 by NTE 8 Comments

That’s it: that title is the whole book. Um. I just… this book. I don’t even know? Hot guy comes into a girl’s work for coffee all the time. She gets a crush on him. Then she goes to the gynecologist, and guess what? or more Guess who? “I can reschedule you with another clinic doctor if you’re not comfortable, Sophie.” I’m not comfortable but I blurt out, “I’m fine!” Admitting I’m uncomfortable would be even more uncomfortable. See: That’s pretty relatable, because how do […]
