Review: I tried

I had started to wonder if I read the same book as all those 5 star reviewers when thankfully I found a couple others that had the same mindset as myself. I tried, I really did. But I felt absolutely no connection to any of the characters, emotional or otherwise. Just because a story is erotica does not mean that we can skip having an actual plot attached to it. The characters were bland, there was no chemistry between any of them to the point where a reader would be left wondering why in hell, other than to scratch an itch these people would have hooked up. Strangers picking each other up at a crowded bar on a Saturday night would have more chemistry.I thought maybe it was just me. I mean not everyone loves every book. So I lent it to a friend who came back about 1/3 into reading it and asked me what the hell I gave her to read and if it was a first draft. Seeing as how she reads almost as much as I do and the same genres, that says a lot to me. The subsequent books may be better written, but I'll never know because honestly reading this one did not inspire me to rush out to get the others.
