Summary: SM for smart girls
Comment: I discovered the world of bdsm a mere three months ago (I'm 34) and can't quite believe how much I didn't know about myself before this. Let's just say I'll never go without it again.

Anyway, since this discovery I have been reading everything I can get my hands on, from really bad stuff like Laura Reese's 2 books to stellar short stories like Mark Pritchards' "Lessons in Submission" to all of Roy Stuart's erotic photography.

Carrie's Story is my absolute favorite for so many reasons. Not only is it not over-romanticized, not only is the sex fascinating and hot, but Carrie's smartass internal monologue sounds so much like my own! On the surface she is compliant and submissive, yet inside she is wry and cynical and sort of astonished at the irony of what she's doing -- and she tells the story with that voice. And the story is just so... believable; the author got all the details right, from her bike messenger outfits to the punk rock references.

I actually read the book a second time and marked all the places where I exclaimed out loud at how exactly it expressed something I felt. Like when Carrie admits how much she loves the *exquisite unfairness* of the arrangement, and when she wonders how -- without clear instructions and commands -- people having vanilla sex *ever* get it right, and when she begins to understand the peculiar logic and integrity of their arrangement -- how it's about him expressing his wishes and her simple obligation to fulfill them exactly.

If you are thinking about engaging in power exchange sex, read this book! Carrie's Story will show you how a smart[minded] girl does it, and she'll make you want to.

Summary: It's About Not Going to the Movies
Comment: I thought thrice before committing myself to 5 stars, and decided that given the genre of erotica/pornography, the book is worth it. It's a wonderful read about a woman's adventure of self-discovery in the world of dominance/submission and s&m. It's thoroughly entertaining as porn, but with the sorts of fleshed out individuals and, particularly in Carrie's character, the kind of emotional honesty seldom explored in the genre. Weatherfield is clearly well read, and there are clever literary allusions and jokes for those with the eyes to see; and some lovely sophisticated ironies that will provoke the occasional knowing smile in the reader. But most important: It's creative and delicious erotica. I can't wait for the sequel to find out what the next set of pit stops will be on what I take to be Carrie's dilated journey towards love.

Summary: Cant sit still
Comment: Wow, a book that is written about pony girls that cant help but stimulate every slave, both male and female. Female being my interest i was glued to every page wanting to read more and more of the adventures portrayed. This is a MUST READ for anyone into S/M. Better buy her next title Safe Word cause your just going to want to read more. Can't wait for her next book.
