Summary: Out There
Review: I enjoyed the 1st part of the book, even found it erotic until the "being turned into a dog" part started. It was a bit over the top for me, especially the dog show.

Summary: Dark & unpleasant & commendable
Review: I got this book in hand bij mistake, and really never let it out again. It's not a nice book and it's not attractive, indeed it's dark and unpleasant and the characters are not always as rounded as the author thinks them. But it is exactly the disturbing nature of the things happening that kept me reading, and the thought that this is something lurking in most people's minds, somewhere- it disturbed me deeply, and months after reading it i'm still not comfortable thinking about this book. An example: I am,on beforehand, disgusted by sex with dogs. Still, the story pulls you in (unfortunate metaphor), so that when it happens, it is not really a surprise, and I accepted it as a logical outcome. That's what's so good about the book, and that is why I recommend it.

Summary: repulsive and intriguing all at the same time
Review: I heard about this book on NPR so it seemed like a pretty good bet. When I first started reading the book, I was a little disgusted by the explicitness of the sexual acts depicted. But once I got passed the initial shock, I couldn't stop reading. If you want to read something other than the usual, read this book. However, if you can't get past the graphic and lurid details of s&m acts, I wouldn't recommend this one.
