Speaking in Whispers: Lesbian African-American Erotica

Rating:
Summary: An Excellent Work Of Art
Review: Amazingly the last time I read this book was a year ago, and many of the stories are still fresh and enticing in my mind. Not only are the characters smart, well-written and realistic, but the stories and women in them are (beautiful)... Stories like "Lessons" and "The Club" are a juicy break from more tradition history of supersoft, super-cheesy erotica but do not surrender the diginity of the characters or the readers. Other stories, although more tradition, do not repeat other writers and hold their own spice and flava!

Summary: LOVED IT TO PIECES!
Review: How exciting! Reading my first novel, with a lesbian focus, and loving every minute of it. I read it in one sitting, not able to put it down. It was like someone had been spying on my Love and me for the past 11 years, in our bedroom no less.Each story offered a different "flava". Humor,lust, decadence, loving, longing, voyeurism-it goes on and on. I love the beginning story, not really knowing at first if the character was fantasizing or not. The last story was a pleasant change- who knows what alien love-making is like? Kathleen, write more-full novel next time please!

Summary: Pretty good, yet pretty thin
Review: I love this book. It is pretty creative, and she exlpores subjects ( erotically by the way) butch femme roles, one night stands, and stuff like that. They situations were good too. My one major beef about this book was it didnt have enough pages for the price. I cab buy thick paper back books for this price. but if thin books dont bother you then this is a great read when you are in the mood for some "spice"

Summary: LOVED IT TO PIECES!
Review: This book was like a breath of fresh passion- filled air. Not since "Black Erotica" have I found a book filled with so many stories about what lesbian passion is really like. I usually read on the train to work or at my desk and the level of quiet excitement that many of these stories aroused in me caused me to opt for more private reading environments. It has also inspired me to write some of my fantasies down and read them to my sweetheart in bed at night. I look forward to more books like this from Ms. Morris in the future.

Summary: Tepid at Best
Review: When I hear the word "erotica" i think "hot and steamy." This book was tepid at best. After reading Kathleen E. Morris' "The Princess and the Cop" on kuma2.net, I thought this book would be just as good. Unfortunately, I was so disappointed with it that I toyed with the idea of returning or exchanging it.
