While I have enjoyed this book (Excellent writing, what I would call real erotic literature), the general-sounding title implies that the story collection encompasses gay, straight, and bisexual tastes for women. This is not the case. The stories are, for the most part, lesbian in slant. This is fine, especially since the writing is so good. However, after a while, this focus starts to feel restrictive for those of us not in the know. I would have appreciated it if the title made the overall gist of the stories clear.

I thought this book was quite good. The descriptions are great and the storylines are wonderful. There's something for everyone in this collection, whether you're straight, gay or bi. I read this with my fiance and he loved it as much as I did!

I bought this anthology to read the story "The Changling' by Lee Lynch (terrific, very original story).

and got a very well written anthology by a host of authors, my favorites were from -

Dorothy Allison
Laura Antoniou
Pat Califia
Heather Lewis
Linda Smukler
Cecilia Tan


Not to be missed - this is Keeper
