Review: Schooled

Schooled by Deena Bright

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a fun and interesting book. It was also quite erotic. A rather surprising book considering it is a first effort for the author. The main characters were developed nicely, and the situation though a little extreme was also believable.

The sexual situations were believable and erotic more than pornographic, though people a little more faint of heart than I am might find them rather graphic. I liked that the main protagonist after the end of her emotionally and sexually unsatisfying marriage came out of her shell a little bit and started to explore and revel in her own sexuality. I liked how it attacked the societal canard that if a woman enjoys sex, or has more than one partner she is somehow a slut or a whore, while men who do this are virile or a stud. I liked how she took the lead in making sure she was satisfied, and that her partner was as well. Reminded me greatly of an older woman who taught me a very great deal when I was a teenager. Her "lessons," took me back to my lessons, and all I learned.

My biggest complaint with this book is that it is a cliff-hanger, and even then it ended almost more than concluding. However I enjoyed it so much I will certainly get the sequel when it comes out so that was not a major problem for me.

An impressive debut for Deena Bright, and I predict as she writes more she will get better at her craft, and her books will bet even more erotic causing many, many cold showers, and likely some unintended children. LOL It was pretty darn steamy.
