Mary T. McCarthy

I admit I have been wanting to read this since I met the author at a writing conference. She's got a good sense of humor.

My first complaint: the person chosen to read this thing. Horrible. Just Horrible. She barely adjusted her voice for the multiple characters and any ... fun ... in the text is bled out by her nasally presentation.

So far, a few explicit scenes, but nothing so vulgar as to be porn. Those that are described tend to shift the focus away from that region. These also work well with the plot and meld seamlessly into the text. Not dropped there just to have them.

Lots of name dropping in this book. Not just brands to consider trademarks, but book titles and authors as well. Not just quotes from them but parts worked deep into the text.

I expected more explicit scenes that I got. There was a lot of fade to black and quickie scenes that left much to be desired, though they fit into the storyline well. The storyline was okay but I felt it rather unfulfilling...… (altro)
