Naughty Fairytales from A to Z Reviews
-
This is one book I'm ashamed to have by my bed. It is really trashy. Luckily the pink and taupe cover blends in with my bedding and can lie camouflaged on my duvet when my flatmate bursts in on me unexpectedly.
I mention it here only because there is one story that lifts it above the average. It is tucked away at the back so you might miss it. It's called Zoe White and the Seven Whores.
I told you it was trashy.
This story is by Thomas S. Roche and, to be honest, it is not his best story. It is light and frothy. It reads like he dashed it off before his morning cappuccino. But he is one of my favourite authors because every sentence he writes either thrills me or makes me laugh.
Zoe White and the Seven Whores had me in stitches. I don't usually laugh out loud when I'm reading but with this one I did and, what is worse, I was on my own.
Yes, I know.
I'm reluctant to recommend it. Humour is a very personal thing.

This was a fun read. Not as scintillating as some erotica anthologies I've read, but still entertaining. Some of the stories actually made me laugh aloud and I appreciated the twist on classic fairy tales.
-
This book was occasionally sexy and often silly. In other words, it was fun to read in a smutty, smirking sense. Definitely not the highbrow erotica you might come across in more serious books. In fact, this is one book you can absolutely judge by its cover.
-
This was mostly silly little stories based on fairy tales but with a decidedly naughty bent. It was mostly fun and steamy. The story 'Belles on her Toes' was probably my favorite - a ghostly erotic tale. Fine for a little bedside reading.
-
Thought it was okay. While I appreciate the twist on well-known fairy tales, the story lines that the authors came up with seemed fairly trite to me
-
Not very good
-
Hot hot hot hot hot hot.
-
These are not top-notch erotica, but they are fun and sexy. Definitely worth a read.
-
Mostly silly, rarely fairly sexy stories mostly based on traditional fairy tales. Some major duds in here, but some good ones too, including the poker-themed 'All McQueen's Men', and some chuckles.
