Review
"A salacious glimpse into the sex lives of bisexual women as they really are… a smart, one-handed read." -- Good Vibrations

"Cara Bruce is San Francisco’s hippest young erotica writer." -- The San Francisco Examiner

From the Author
Bisexual women are a staple of everyone else’s porn and erotica, and maybe that’s why you rarely see collections specifically by and for them. In that sense, this collection is the first chance for bisexual women to explicitly reveal themselves, their sex lives, and their desires. I was ecstatic when Cleis Press asked me to edit this collection. To me, this project reflected the joys, difficulties, and exquisite range of sexual encounters that come with being a bisexual woman.

Customer Reviews

Not what we were expecting
My wife and I purchased this book and we weren't happy with it at all. I know that bisexual could mean guy-on-guy just as much as it could mean girl-on-girl, but we just weren't expecting it. Already, we found two stories in the book with this theme showing up and for people that have no interest in it at all, it really kills the story. Additionally, some stories are just plain boring. They work up to what could be an interesting climax, but then they just end. Some stories go into great depth setting the environment and mood, but cover the actual sexual acts in like two paragraphs. We were definitely not satisfied with the book and will have to be a lot more careful before spending money on other erotica books. I was very confused because so many people wrote positive reviews on this book. Oh well, to each their own.

No Diversity in the book
It's a much needed book to show the spectrum of identities and fantasies that exist in the world. But the title should be "White Women's bisexual erotica". There need's to be more diversity of voices within this type of literature. That is my "2 cents" on that matter.

bluhk, can I give a negitive star?
I am so disappointed in this book that I would request a refund if I could! I have never been with a woman before, but they star in some of my most cherised fantasies and I ordered this book to see if someone elses fantasies could compare! ummm...no. I have not finished this book, which isn't fair since it is written by several authors, but it's been editied by the same person, so if all the stories are the way the first ones have been, I wont bother. Each scenario has been discribed as something to be ashamed of and filthy (and not in a yummy naughty way either) One story actualy used the words rank and putrid when discribing the woman she was with...now how is that supposed to be appealing? If this is the way women are writing about other women, I'll stick with my own imagination thank you... the women I fantasize about are anything but putrid!
