cavanami Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Posted July 28, 2015 50 Shades of Grey E.L. James Quite the romantic, erotic novel! Young, innocent, lady, still a virgin, just graduates from the University. She meets with a young, handsome, billionaire and out of the gate they go! He has a very, very dark side but she is drawn to him.... This is 1 of 3 of the trilogy. Easy, quick read. Entertaining and I know a few BMs would greatly enjoy the read... ** 1/2
Specialist Posted July 28, 2015 Report Posted July 28, 2015 "The Annihilation Score", by Charles Stross. Latest in the "Laundry" series, about an obscure British intelligence service that protects against occult threats. Lots more fun than it sounds from my description. Excellent. I just started "The Mind Play Study Guide", by Mark Wiseman. This is nonfiction, a gentle introduction to erotic hypnosis. Too soon to tell how good it is. (This one is a "small sips" approach, as opposed to the "drinking from a firehose" approach I got from Mark Cunningham, in various seminars over the years.) At the insistence of a very comely blonde Sweet Young Thing, I am trying to plow through "50 Shades of Grey". It is slow slogging. The writing is TERRIBLE, and Christina Abernathy's "Erotic Slavehood: A Miss Abernathy Omnibus", while no-fiction instead of rebranded "Twilight" fan fiction, is a far better introduction to the topic.
cavanami Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Posted July 28, 2015 I see that Charles Stross has written about 20 books...I am d'loading all of them now...
Mekong Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 Not a book as such but wading my way again through the works of Tom Sharpe. His novels are full of satire and sarcasm, as a Brit much like my life. If the idea of gas filled condoms emitting from the chimney stack of a Cambridge University then exploding and destroying half the campus humour you then I recommend Porterhouse Blue.
cavanami Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Posted August 10, 2015 50 shades of Grey I got thru all three books. They got better as I went on. #1, a bit of a sleeper. #2, better but slow moving. #3, finally a thin story line and was OK. **
cavanami Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Posted August 17, 2015 Atrocity Archives Charles Stross Excellent read, if you like si-fi mixed with the occult. Moves along nicely. *** 1/2 Now on to the next one of his...Jennifer Morgue...and the the 20 or so others... 1
cavanami Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Posted August 24, 2015 Jennifer Morgue Charles Stross Excellent read, if you like si-fi mixed with the occult. Moves along nicely. A little bit on the James Bond side. *** 1/2 Now will take a break from Stross and read the Willie Nelson book...
My Penis is hungry Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 Jake's Thing. by Kingsley Amis. I always seem to like his books, very bleak, not happy but satirical at times that push a pained grin onto my face like trying to shift a huge solid shit from my bowels. I like his books, I really do, most of those by Martin too. And I have to wonder why, given both are quite right wing, and I am a far opposite. Well worth the read/.
cavanami Posted August 31, 2015 Author Report Posted August 31, 2015 First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia By: Luong Ung Griping! fast moving! Shocking!!! A must read for anyone who wants to look into the horrors that took place in Cambodia in the 70's. ****
cavanami Posted August 31, 2015 Author Report Posted August 31, 2015 Its a Long Story: My Life Willie Nelson Great read, if you like Willie even a little bit! Fast moving, easy, quick read. Very enjoyable! *** 1/2
