Best Bondage Doesn't Disappoint, Jan 3 2011
By Ang - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Best Bondage Erotica 2011 (Paperback)
When I was told the title of Best Bondage Erotica 2011, I'll admit I had a healthy dose of trepidation course through my skeptical mind. The term "best" tends to raise my eyebrows without fail, particularly since I've seen the best some have to offer and been sorely disappointed. Imagine my surprise when not only were the stories in BBE11 well written, grammatically sound (hey, that's important to me) and arranged brilliantly, but they were in fact some of the best I've read. I appreciated that some didn't necessarily speak to my kinks but were still hot. I loved that some stories had my pussy throbbing until I could hardly hold on to the book, and others had me clenching it in my hands, aching for more after the story ended. A rare few had me nearly screaming in frustration, wanting more of the authors' imaginations to speak to me from the pages. But the common thread among all of the stories was the soul of the characters - the unyielding, concentrated spirit that lives within strong individuals who choose kink.Not everyone will enjoy every story; even I didn't love all of them. The difference between this book and many others I have read, however, is that I didn't skip past any of the stories. I didn't roll my eyes and give up because of poor writing. I didn't slam the book shut out of irritation with bad spelling or grammar. I didn't have to swallow my disgust with poor word choice or blatantly unsafe (or even illegal) practices. What does this mean to you? It means that this is a bondage erotica book that everyone can enjoy. Intellectual word geeks won't find themselves turned off by bad writing, because it doesn't exist in this book. Those with more relaxed attitudes towards literature will also enjoy the high quality scenes painted from cover to cover. The quality of the writing was obviously well considered.
Finally, the last thing I'm going to say in this short and sweet review is that I am amazed at the diversity of the anthology. Points of view I had never even considered were explored and devoured in BBE11. I could FEEL how a top might have felt in the situation. I could sense a bottom's excitement and a newcomer's trepidation. I could put myself in many different shoes and because of that, I gained some incredible new perspectives. I enjoyed that, more than I expected.
When it comes down to the wire, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Rachel put together a stellar anthology that has something for nearly every bondage lover. I know that I've already dogeared a few of my favorite stories and will return to them many times for inspiration and sharing.

Best Bondage Erotica 2011, Mar 5 2011
By Kate Dominic - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Best Bondage Erotica 2011 (Paperback)
Libido stimulating stories are always hot, sexy fun to read. In Best Bondage Erotica 2011, Rachel Kramer Bussel takes the turn-on an unexpected step further by selecting stories that tease arousal from the thinking part of the brain as well. And these stories do it so smoothly, you don't notice what's going on until you feel the shivers.The totally hot "Relative Anonymity" by Emerald uses the power of trust and love to subtly yet smoothly open doors to erotic possibilities. What really strikes a chord for me is the unexpected (and very sexy) layering in the story. One level is all about the characters - and that's hot all on its own. Pulling the reader in to ask questions and release inhibitions - enticing the reader to really jump in and *enjoy* the story (and the rest of the stories in the book) - is sexy on a whole other level.
"The Ingenue" by Janine Ashbless takes you places you don't know you wanted to go - until you go there. Then it makes you question whether you want to go back, even while you know, deliciously, that you will.
Tenille Brown's "Reasoning" and Lisabet Sarai's "Wired" expand the ways and places people can use a new-found freedom from control to explore their dominant and submissive sides, even in (especially in?) very non-traditional ways.
"How the Little Mermaid Got Her Tail Back" by Andrea Dale (I purely love a fairy tale!) is a treat of unabashed exuberance that's meant to be relished. Bill Kte pi's modern interpretation of "The Lady and the Tiger" gives a new, intense, and very sexy buzz to a very old story. (That story will stay with me for a long time.) And Rachel Kramer Bussel's "Vegas Treat" shows that even the sexiest things happening in Vegas don't have to stay there.
Whether the words are smooth as silk ties or rough as rope, these sizzling hot stories of erotic bondage kept me tied to the page and enjoying every minute of it. Highly recommended.

Hot stories, truly a collection of the best., April 30 2011
By Wildscribe - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Best Bondage Erotica 2011 (Paperback)
If you have ever been interested in bondage, this is a must-read. As usual, Rachel Kramer Bussel puts together a collection that covers many angles, allowing you to explore plenty of different takes on the bondage kink, from a woman in Las Vegas who is approached out of the blue for a fetish modeling shoot (and some seriously hot pleasure afterward), to a husband who puts his wife in a bit of under-clothing bondage to meet his blind friend... and for a little surprise play afterward!This collection is full of ropes and cuffs and all of the things that make a bondage lover's head spin. If you enjoy even the idea of bondage, this collection will be a worthy investment. Be prepared to be seriously turned on.
