Happy Birthday Book of Erotica Book

Featuring stories set on the one day of the year that is your day, The Happy Birthday Book of Erotica, edited by Alison Tyler, should bring some extra flavor to your birthday or any time of the year! A collection of short stories from a variety of erotica writers, you will learn that everyone'old, young, vagina-owners, shoppers, workers, friends, sisters, etc.'wants some extra attention on their one and only day.

Each story is present in order to cater to the individual reader; for example, despite the plethora of characters introduced in the book, there is actually very little physical description of each person. Each story gives a name to its main character, perhaps a name to supplementary characters, and then dives right into describing the context in order to give the reader a sense of what is happening. Other than maybe a word or two about the principal character being a blond or a brunette, the description is limited enough so that you can use your imagination to fill in the gaps with your own image of the ideal partner(s)!
In addition to giving readers the freedom to visualize the stories the way they desire, the stories also feature notably varied lengths. Therefore, if you're into a quickie for the day or would like to read a piece with extended details on the scenery, the touching, or the sex, there are enough different stories in this book to cater to how large or small your sexual appetite is at the moment.

Since this is a book centered on birthdays, the fun of the "birthday spanking" makes up a majority of the stories. As thrilling as it is to play up this concept (and the book does it well!), the stories become rather repetitive, especially since many of the writers also loved to add in the excitement of bondage. In many cases, the story goes as follows: it is the main character's birthday, a partner comes in as a surprise birthday gift, then either spanking or being tied up ensues, followed shortly after by sex occurring. Of course, that doesn't mean that each story reads in the same way; in fact, the variety of settings, milieu, and characters will probably entice you to keep reading. To sum it all up, you could say that domination, in one form or another, dominates this book. Therefore, when reading, only take on a few stories at a time, that way, you can give yourself time to savor each moment without realizing that you just read about the same moment 20 minutes earlier.

Unfortunately, despite the myriad characters that are used in this book, most of the stories are from a female's perspective. Perhaps this is also another reason why the stories become rather repetitive, because not only is there someone being tied up, but it is usually also the girl who is bound to the bed before a partner enters the scene. There are a total of two stories near the end where a male is narrating or presented as the main character, and there are no stories about men having sex with men. TIn thoughe end, this book was more than likely written for a female audience, ; however, if the prevalence of female perspectives does not bother you, then by all means, pick this upbegin reading!

The Happy Birthday Book of Erotica would add some extra flavor to any birthday. Who doesn't love about half an hour of sexytime, fueled by the saucy words on the page as well as your wild imagination? Nonetheless, unless you're into spanking and domination, limit your reading to short bursts; that way, you can add some heat without getting burned.
