4.0 out of 5 stars
A quick, but fun read, December 11, 2009
This review is from: A Is for Amour (Erotic Alphabet) (Paperback)
This series of books looked like a fun and playful read, and that's basically what I got out of them. "A is for Amour" is a collection of short stories focused on the realms of passion. Each story is different and should speak to a wide spectrum of readers. In terms of intensity I don't think any of the stories really go very extreme, but stay more on the "softer" side of things, if that makes any sense. This is sort of what one would expect from a book titled "A is for Amour".
It's an extremely quick read though. I think I managed to read everything in about an afternoon. The one quibble I have with it is the price. I'm still up in the air as to whether it really warranted the ten dollars I spent. Granted there were multiple writers involved and I enjoyed the stories, but at only 132 pages, I feel I get a lot more bang for my buck (no pun intended) out of a novel for 8 dollars.
I would say only pick this up if it really intrigues you. I don't think many readers would be overly disappointed with it, regardless of their passion, but if you think you'd get more out of a novel, that's where I'd go first.

5.0 out of 5 stars
12 diverse stories, May 27, 2007
This review is from: A Is for Amour (Erotic Alphabet) (Paperback)
I bought this book when I saw that a favorite author had a story included - All about Us by Radclyffe. It's a fabulous and erotic story not to be missed.
Some stories will appeal immensely while others may not be your cup of tea. All are well written. At 132 pages, and reading a couple stories a day, the work week will pass quickly.

"A" is for... A-mazingly erotic...!, October 2, 2009
This review is from: A Is for Amour (Erotic Alphabet) (Paperback)
Length:: 0:22 Mins
I swear if I keep reading these erotic collections so fast I'm going to explode with the internal sexual pressure. I've long given up trying to read short erotic stories on my break during my two minute siestas throughout the day. No, once I get my teeth into a good erotic anthology (like this one) I don't slack my jaws until I'm done. If this book would have been any longer I might have gotten lockjaw. My favorites:
Strings
All About Us
The Blonde in 1812
Parker's Mustache - my favorite
Sharing the Love
My Sometimes Girlfriend
