Bark At The Ghouls

I am finally back to my review archive project. I read this back in 2013 and never did get back to the series after this one. Should I bother after all this time? Beyond Shame by Kit Rocha Released September 2012 Romance   |   Goodreads    |  Amazon Source:  Purchased With My Own $ All Noelle Cunningham has ever wanted is a life beyond–beyond the walls of Eden, where only the righteous are allowed to remain, and beyond her stiflingly restrictive existence as a councilman’s daughter. But only ruins lie outside the City, remnants of a society destroyed by solar storms decades earlier. The sectors surrounding Eden house the corrupt, the criminal–men like Jasper McCray, bootlegger and cage fighter. Jas clawed his way up from nothing to stand at the right hand of Sector Four’s ruthless leader, and he’ll defend the O’Kane gang with his life. But no fight ever prepared him for the exiled City girl who falls at his feet. Her innocence is u...

I pressed my sarcasm button and this spewed out. Pound of Flesh by Jessa Kane Erotica   Released December 2016 Goodreads  | I Know You Want To Buy A Copy So Do It Here   Source: Purchased With My Own $ Beast saw Beauty. And the hunt was on.  A beast has just kicked down my front door.  He’s massive, scarred, just out of prison and refuses to budge.  Unless I go with him.  He’s made it clear what he wants—my untouched body beneath his giant, damaged one.  If I run, he’ll hunt me down and take it.  But when he slips and shows me his desperation…  I’m no longer sure whether I want to run to him or away from him.  These Are My Thoughts I read this a little while ago but someone told me my blog has been boring lately and they are probably right. I figured this review might perk up your eyeballs or send you running screaming as far away from me and my blog as possible. I aim to do both but...

Zombies Need A Little Love Too . . . Servant of the Undead by Isabelle Drake Erotic Horror Fiction   Released May 2018 Amazon  ♦  Goodreads Having sex with an ice-covered, smudgy-eyed woman in tattered fishnets and a barely-there mini-skirt is Hayden Thomas’ first mistake.

I don't like to DNF but I also don't like the idea of struggling through a book that doesn't get along with me. Here is a little collection of books I had to give up on because I am a quitter and I have entirely too many books in my tbr pile. Unbury Carol by Josh Malerman I gave it my best try and read a third before throwing in the towel. This book was just so incredibly not for me. I like weird and dark little stories but this tale about a woman afflicted by a condition where she falls into a death-like state and the dastardly bastard of a man she trusted, who naturally is doing her all kinds of wrong, isn't working for me in any way. The characters are not engaging me and the plot is not interesting to me so I'm calling it quits and starting something else. Tasty Treats for Demanding Dogs by Gregg R. Gillespie I made it to the 25% mark, skimming all the way. I never read all the way through cookbooks but already I've noticed ...

Not exactly what I was expecting but what else is new?

Kenyatta has taught Natasha about herself, given her a sense of safety she has never felt before, and shown her a whole new world of sexual experiences. Now she must learn the hardest part of love: understanding. To help Natasha overcome her white-trash upbringing and understand African heritage, Kenyatta offers her a wager. A very real and dangerous wager, but one worth taking. Can Natasha’s love endure 400 Days of Oppression? Wrath James White pushes the boundaries of race and sexuality in this dark, erotic novel--easily his most controversial yet! My Thoughts   I’d previously read Wrath James White's collaboration with Edward Lee, Teratologist , and was horrified by the ...

3 of 5 stars This was a Kindle freebie until Amazon pulled it. Why, Amazon, why do you do these terrible things?!! For an erotica freebie, this one was pretty good. It's only a novella and ends a little abruptly but the story about a futuristic society and a sex worker trying out for a better position was kind of interesting. Weird that she was so perfect at everything but maybe that's explained somewhere in the future . . . I don't like reading this "part 1" installment type nonsense, finish your book already and release it when it's done, I'm too lazy to chase down sequels, so a 3 1/2 it is. And, yeah. I'm bothered because the other two books are not available anywhere apparently. WTH? Now I'll never know what delights the future of sex have in store for mortals. Damn it all. View all my reviews If any of you know why Amazon pulls all the good books, can you please let me know in the comments?!  It's driving me nuts.

  3 of 5 stars I got this free at Amazon a little while back but now, it seems, they've made it "unavailable". WTH is up with Amazon pulling all of the fun books? Now that I've read a little of this I can honestly say that it's everything I hoped it would be ;) There are three stories in this book and the first is a pervy take on The Little Mermaid. After watching humans go at it, this mermaid wants in on the fun and wishes for some genuine lady parts so she will able to do some very unlady-like things. The writing is light-hearted and fun and doesn't take things seriously. So far? Totally worth what I paid for it ;) A little later: Hmmm, this was not bad at all for a freebie but it became very repetitive, very quickly. One can only take so much anonymous screwing before one's brain goes numb. The Little Mermaid story was decent (3 1/2 stars). Picockio (2 stars) was meh and the most repetitive for me. I just didn't dig the storyline, I ...

3 of 5 stars So, a beauty walks into an auto repair shop, has work done, conveniently forgets her cash. The sexy, bearded mechanic is all, “Well, well, then! Show me your kitty-cat and we’ll call it even”. I suppose most normal people might be a little skeeved out by this. But this little sheltered chickadee? Well, she’s all turned on by this bad boy and kind of flattered too. So she shows him her goodies because this is an Alexa Riley story, after all, and then stuff happens and happens again and again. If you were wondering, and I’m sure you were, yes, the heroine is a virgin and, yes, the hero is an over-protective alpha on steroids who falls into that sweet, sweet kind of insta-lust that he calls love. Alexa Riley never disappoints. But wait! There’s more to this story. The heroine is a poor little rich girl who is being forced to marry a slimeball because her daddy says so. Daddy also threatens that she’ll never, ever be able to see her sick granny ag...

DNF "This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of AudiobookBoom dot com." I'm sure they're regretting it now. I had to DNF this little audio two hours in because my poor, abused and confused ears could not take another second of this narrator’s voice. This has to be, hands down, one of the most painful narrations I have ever had the displeasure of listening to. All of the characters, even the menfolk, sound like perky twelve year old girls. The narrator doesn’t make even the slightest attempt at altering the voices so the reader knows who is speaking. The cadence is also all wrong. She puts emphasis on the wrong words and stops and starts in the strangest of places. But that's not all. I might’ve been able to continue if the story weren’t all . . . Maybe it’s just me. Feel free to judge for yourownself. Here's the plot so far as I know it. The heroine is Charlie and ...

2 of 5 stars I received a copy of this audiobook from   Audio Book Blast   in exchange for a review . This is a collection of monster porn that is so shameless and tongue in cheek (or wherever . . .) that it even dares to put in some swanky porn music in the opening sequence. I don’t think I’ve ever come across that in an audio and it startled me. If I’m being honest, it scared me a little too and I turned the volume nob waaaaay down. Just what HAD I gotten myself into? Warning: These stories were written to unlock your darkest fantasies and innermost desires. They are not for the faint of heart and are not your average erotica. They are not suitable for someone under 18 years of age. Read at your own risk...or delight! Promises, promises . . . So here we go.
