Not my erotica

Unfortunately I downloaded the wrong genre of erotic fiction however there where some short stories that stirred an emotion. Even though it was the wrong genre I still wanted to finish the book

absloute rubbish good thing it was free

What disappointed you about The Best American Erotica 1994 (Unabridged Selections)?

I have never heard such rubbish in my life the intro done by whoever was pathetic.. putting a dramatic stress on rude words does not make it erotic

Would you be willing to try another one of the narrators’s performances?

absolutely not

What character would you cut from The Best American Erotica 1994 (Unabridged Selections)?

all of it

Any additional comments?

I decided to try a couple of free books to see f it was worth becoming a member.. I have to say if this is the standard of books on audible, they will get nothing from me. I am not even going to download the second book waiting in my account
