A kink of mass appeal

Watching and being watched is perhaps the most common kink. It is, by far, my favorite. And I think that most people will find a story or three, at the least, in this collection that speaks to a few of their own inner fantasies. I frequently had to put the book down to let my own mind wander to what I would do in similar situations and reach for my nearest......hmm. Can I say that here? ;) Well, nearest toy, let's put it that way. I personally only found two stories to be lacking for my taste, but I think that's a fairly common thing with anthologies. You simply cannot please everyone with every single piece in the book. That being said, I found a much higher ratio of "Holy crap that's hot" to "Meh" in this anthology than most others. It's not all about threesomes. There are some who are performing in some way, some who are knowingly being watched and some unknowing. There are 2 lesbian stories and 1 gay male story. Tales of sluts and prudish wall-flowers alike. I frequently found myself envious of the characters in the stories, to be honest. I'm picky with my erotica; I don't like flowery euphemisms or 60 ways to says "cock". I like a happy medium between the no-build-up-straight-cut-to-sex and the so-subtle-its-pretentious, and nearly all of these stories fall wonderfully in that happy medium. ~Lilly [...]

There's something in here for everyone

Alison Tyler and Rachel Kramer Bussel have succeeded again with a collection of erotic short fiction. In Caught Looking, the theme is voyeurism and exhibitionism, and there is a story in here for everyone. This book will appeal to fans of erotic literature who don't live "the lifestyle." Tyler is our exhibitionist author, while Bussel is the voyeur, and each writes an introduction confessing to her specific kink. The final two stories in this twenty-story collection are written by the anthology editors. The book concludes with a biography of each of the short story authors, which is very helpful for anyone looking to read more of their favorite stories in this collection.

Very Good Erotica Anthology- as to be expected

I really enjoyed this book. Not quite as much as She's on Top or He's on Top because somehow in this book being a voyuer means almost always ending up in a threesome here. I'd like to see maybe a boy next door spying on his neighboor girl in the sequel Hide and Seek. My favorites in this were 'Curtain Call' and 'X-Ray Specs'. I can't wait to check out Hide and Seek also by Rachel Kramer Bussel. Also, forthcoming by her are Sex and Candy, Yes, Ma'am and Yes, Sir.

Caught Looking: looking back....

..not a story in the book failed to arouse. I don't consider myself necessarily "wired" for voyeurism/exhibitionism but on the advice of a knowledgeable friend I got this primer and learned delightfully that this is one kink all modern people share - perhaps most especially urbanites. 99% of the people we see each day disappear forever the minute we pass them on the street and so the anonymity and the perpetual gaze are somehow baked in. Breakdown - my fav's: "Sharing The Perfect Cock." Completely unexpected and torrid. A great climax to the book. Again, not a single dud - but these are the ones I go back to in my head. I really loved "The Changing Room" and "The Poet, Dying." "The Key" was *steaming*. Quite a few brought enough blush to my cheeks that I became conscious of being in the company of fellow subway riders. Hot enough keep the pages turning. Good enough to turn them again.
