Best of Best Lesbian Erotica 2 [Paperback]

Tristan Taormino (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 10, 2005

With a new, nationally known coeditor each year, Best Lesbian Erotica has been acclaimed for its high literary quality as much as for its “steamy, pulse-quickening sex and inspired plots” (Good Vibrations). The exceptional stories in Best of Best Lesbian Erotica 2 are from the second five years of the series. These stories are untamed and unpredictable. They look for the edge of lesbian desire, and trace it in rich, believable detail. Contributors include Cecilia Tan, M. R. Daniel, Cara Bruce, and Rachel Kramer Bussel.

This review is from: Best of Best Lesbian Erotica 2 (Paperback)

I bought this book for my girlfriend and I to read together. We've been through about half the book and have skipped over probably 80% of the stories because they either involved men or anal sex. I'm sorry but when a lesbian is trying to get in the mood she doesn't want to read about men in the mix. This is supposed to be the best of lesbian erotica, it should be called the best of bisexual erotica.

Now that this has been said, the stories that appeal to us are great. ;)

This review is from: Best of Best Lesbian Erotica 2 (Paperback)

I bought this book a month ago and only reacently had the time to really start reading it. I am so glad I spent my money on this. I get so frustrated with erotica that repeats itself, the same story over and over again where sex is the whole point of the story and none of the characters have any more depth than the page they're written on. These stories are the best stories out of the Best of Lesbian Erotica series and the time and effort it took to pick these works shows. Each story has more nuances than one would expect picking up a book of erotica and yet none of the stories are so esoteric that readers wont find them a real turn on. This book is a great balance between art and the power of words and a pure exploration into female, specifically lesbian, sexuality. I would recommend this to lesbians and straight girls. Anyone who loves great stories, and bold, unapologetic female sexuality.
