Rating: Summary: The bathtub just became a lot more fun Review: Finally! Finally I can read while taking a bubble bath, and not worry about getting the book wet! That alone is worth the price.Aqua Erotica is a sexy collection of well-written stories. Recommended to anyone who likes good quality erotica. There's a wide variety of moods, sexual orientations, and styles represented in these stories, but all are unusually creative and interesting for a book of erotica. Plus, they're hot.
Rating: Summary: Everything is better when it's VERY WET! Review: I enjoyed this anthology of erotic stories. Of course, not every story was my cup of tea which is why I only gave it four stars.
This anthology is visually exciting and sensually diverse. Contained between these pages are sexual situations from all walks of life. Therefore, if you are not sexually open-minded you might want to skip this book.
What really intrigued me was the deep emotional element with in the characters of the short stories. This certainly wasn't just an anthology describing intense sexual situations but more emotional journeys incorporated in sexual situations. I was surprised by some of the endings of the stories and the wonderful writing by various authors.
Another plus to this book was that it is water proof. So read it in the bath, pool, hot tub, or even in the rain! Heck, read it outloud during an adult game of slip-n-slide!

Rating: Summary: Dull, unsexy Review: I ordered this book, more out of curiosity than anything else. And when it finally came in the mail, I hurriedly opened the package, ran some water and dropped the book in the tub. Wow, it really is waterproof. Then I locked the door, poured in some bubbles and salts and got ready for what I thought would be sheer heaven in a book. The stories weren't as good as I hoped. But it was waterproof. I tried to get my Boyfriend to jump in the tub and share in the good times but the stories bored him. If it wasn't waterproof, it wouldn't have got a four. But i am so sick of dropping paperbacks in the tub, this remedies the problem. I see they have a second edition out, I'm hesitant to buy it. I'm also weak willed, so i probably will. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Rating: Summary: Come in - the water's fine! Review: It isn't just the fact that you can read this book in the bathtub and not have to worry about it getting wet. It isn't just the fact that there are so many wonderful authors contributing. It isn't just the fact that the erotica is steamy and amazingly well-written. It is all of those things put together. Aqua Erotica is wonderful because it is so openly appealing. The water theme dares you to slip in and be comfortable - it brings so many different erotic angles that it's hard to go to in one review. Anyone would enjoy this book - you don't have to be particularly perverted to like it. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
Rating: Summary: Dull, unsexy Review: Really not very good stories - not particularly sexy, nor good romance, nor good lit. Avoid this one, there's so many better erotic books.
Rating: Summary: A good and wet collection Review: Sex. Water. Jim Beam. These are things that bring me great pleasure. All three at once equal ecstasy or something close to it. So when I tumbled upon Aqua Erotica of course I had to read it in the tub with my drink in hand. Monhanraj has compiled a collection of 18 stories involving sex and water. Sometimes sex is the driving force, other times it's the water. Horror writer Poppy Z. Brite's contribution, "Nothing of Him That Doth Fade" is the highlight of the book. She creates a love story between two men set in a tragic ocean scene. This story is so rich in its character development and flow that it feels like so much more than a short story. The sexiest story in the collection is "I Want" by Mary Maxwell, which takes place on a desert road with two women and a jug of water. Another brilliant story is Cecelia Tan's version of "The Little Mermaid" in which she tells how it probably really went down, all slippery and wet. Thankfully all sexual orientations are represented in Aqua Erotica, though of course the focus is on hetro sex. Still the stories are hot, even if a few are conventional at times. I have to mention that many of the stories reminded me of the classic water-sex-death story "A Woman in the Dunes" by Anais Nin. So much so in fact that I had to go pull if off my shelf and reread it. Unfortunately, Monhanraj didn't include this in her collection, but I would highly recommend finding and reading "A Woman in the Dunes" with Aqua Erotica, they just fit. Oh, and the most important thing about this book. It's waterproof so you can get it wet with any substance you desire and just wipe it away...how cool.
