5.0 out of 5 stars A real turn on, July 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Bedtime Stories for Lovers (Paperback)

I too was surprised by the negative reviews. I guess erotic writing is a matter of taste. Personally, I was totally turned on by the book. The combination of steamy sex, humor and warmth that the author provides is very difficult to find in most erotic writing and, for me, it is tremendously exciting. If you are interested in cold, mechanical erotica describing 136 different positions, this book is not for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great stories...but a little too vulgar at times..., January 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bedtime Stories for Lovers (Paperback)

but that is just my opinion. I was hoping to find a collection of romantic, tasteful erotic stories...and there is an element of those things in these stories...but the author frequently uses words that you would expect to see in some trashy porno rag. Granted that is probably a turn-on for a lot of people, but for me I prefer sensitive, tasteful references to genitalia, especially imagery, which the author includes at times (in one story referring to the woman's genitalia as a "tender bud"). I read these stories alone, and I couldn't imagine reading them with a partner or having a partner read them to me. I would be so turned off.

If you're not ready to take a major leap into erotica, Bedtime Stories for Lovers is a great start point. Lloyd's stories are fun for erotica newbies and are pretty hot. I've reread them over and over and they never fail to turn me on. Like I said, "Yum!"
