Of this list, I started Neon Gods, but wasn't really in the mood for BDSM with gods and goddesses at the moment. I've read A Court of Thorns and Roses and all the books in that series, of course. I read The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty a long time ago. I've also read The Time Traveler's Wife and some of the Outlander series (seen all of the shows, though). I started watching Bridgerton, but wasn't really into it. Maybe I'll pick it back up. I've read Priest as well.

Anyone else read any or have a good one that's not on the list?

 

[TypicalRussian]

Erotic novel readers are women coping for the fact that the cool and hot boys didnt **** them in HS and college so they attach to fictional men as a result. It's the same deal with women attaching to hockey. Every woman I have met that attaches themselves to an attractive hockey player were either overweight or not very socially intelligent/charming. For men it's like seeing some coping nerd/nice guy say that he "is focusing on himself" when we all know that he is just coping for not being cool or charming. I am in college so I have talked to plenty frat boy "players" and none of them have any introspective qualities or care about any mission they just think it's cool to throw parties.

Porn doesnt fit into this though cause for most men it's really just a chemical addiction to get off.

You consider the Outlander series erotic?? I don't. I read that series years ago, it's more of an epic adventure through time, kinda like John Jakes "The North and South" series that came out in the 80's.

 

[The Mark]

I routinely read or listen to fiction books in the Gamelit/LitRPG genre, and fairly often get recommended versions of that with extensive erotic content mixed in.

I've tried reading/listening to a couple, but I don't really enjoy it. I think some of the authors are trying to fit too much erotic into the story, and it gets forced and janky.

Maybe it's because I enjoy the adventure/growth/progression story way more than the erotic part, and I just want them to stop ****ing and move on with the fun part.
Which sounds odd but yeah...that sounds right.

So I'm kind of curious about this because I'm a guy. You were just romance novels are they not is there something more to them. If so do they describe sexual acts? Or is it different?

You must be an unpleasant person. Is there anything in life you enjoy any thing that gives you pleasure?

Oh... I'm sorry.

Erotic moments, sure. North and South would be blushing.

It's also part of the article which is why I mentioned it. To be fair, I think they were talking more about the TV series than the books.

Romance novels, but make the sex super spicy.

Try Naked Lunch.

 

[craig]

I have read about half and they are not erotic novels. They just have sex scenes that fit with the narrative.

Once I've read the book(s), I NEVER watch the movies/TV series, they're so disappointingly lacking in detail.

I'm what way?

Outlander, the series, is super good for the first few seasons. Once they go to America it started to get a little boring. The first few seasons were spiiiicy, though. It's no wonder all woman love him:

Really????? You just proved you know absolutely NOTHING about women, or men for that matter...

All the ways? LOL! Go pick up Sierra Simone's Priest series at the library or bookstore and give it a read. The one called Saint is guy/guy erotic romance one.

Isn't Lady Chatterley's Lover supposed to be go-to female erotica? Or was that omitted intentionally from your list?

I might have to look into it. I tried reading with those erotic short stories that people used to post on the internet I'm sure they still do. Always found it so clunky. I'm not sure if that was just because of amateur riding and often no editing at all.

There's only so much you can cram into a one/one and a half hour production of a book, so much of the content is lost and replaced by the handful of juicy scenes. I've read 8 of the 9 books in Gabaldon's series, and fell in love with Jamie as I'm sure most women did. I'm always horribly dissapointed when I watch an attempt to bring it to the screen.

I think you mean Women In Love.
