Best Women's Erotica edited by Violet Blue is one of the best known erotica series out there. Writers clamour to get between the pages of these books, and rightly so. Best Women's Erotica 2012 is a collection of 18 erotic stories, catering to a variety of different tastes. With stories from big names such as K D Grace, Elizabeth Coldwell, Kay Jaybee, Jacqueline Applebee, Sommer Marsden and Donna George Storey, I was looking forward to a luscious read.
On the whole, this is what I got. Naturally, with so many different writers, you will get many different writing styles. Some of these I didn't like, and ended up skipping stories because they just weren't doing anything for me. The others, however, were smokin' hot! Particular favourites of mine were The Nylon Curtain by Elizabeth Coldwell and Neighborly Relations by Dorianne - both very filthy, and Elizabeth's tale was especially kinky and unique. Brilliant.
Overall, this book is definitely worth a read for erotica fans, because the stand out stories are so enjoyable. And of course because people's opinions differ, others may well adore the stories I disliked. It's always the way with anthologies! In my opinion, though, this isn't the best volume of Best Women's Erotica out there.

A Hot and Enjoyable Read With a Variety of Themes
16 Feb 2012
Format:Paperback
I purchased this book as Valentine's Day gift and read it prior to wrapping it up. The stories are all short yet very well written. The book includes stories dealing with exhibitionism, group play, erotic fantasy, submission, encounters between strangers, and other areas. There is something in here for virtually all readers. "Pagoda" is a fine example of mindplay in that both the protaganist and the reader are never sure if it is truly an exhibitionist display or all in the mind. Things being all in the mind are also a central part of "Skin Doctor" while "Eddie's All Night Diner" will make you look a little closer next time you're eating out. "Bad" and "A Wider World" both involve adding a third person or couple to bedroom play and were probably my favorite stories in the book. I agree with an earlier reviewer that "Dolly" is somewhat disturbing but then different strokes for different folks. All in all a great read.

Be warned, some of these stories are bit extreme and I would caution readers that some stories may not be to their tastes

Best Women's Erotica 2012
Erotic Anthology - Dec. 6th, 2011
3 stars
In the Best Women's Erotica, there is an array of stories that vary from: implied sex, to spanking, to sex with knives, MFF, bondage and even one that felt a bit incestuous.
The shorts in the book really differ. In fact, the very first story called Drought seemed a bit poetic and experimental. Unlike many erotic anthologies the sex does not often seem straightforward and many of the stories are in first person which sometimes did not work for me since I have more trouble getting into a story where the main character isn't very interesting. Compared to their book, The Best Erotic Romance, I found this book was a little lack luster. I could I could not get into the stories quite as easily and the stories were a bit uneven. The story about Dolly I found a bit disturbing and one story in particular seemed to be on the edge of violence. I found this book a bit too shocking for my tastes. Still, less mainstream readers who enjoy more edgy reads that have much more than vanilla sex and that could even be called a bit artsy will find this book a treat.
Be warned, some of these stories are bit extreme and I would caution readers that some stories may not be to their tastes -wilder and kinkier than most in the market.
