I heard the Grey series was labelled as erotica. Ok. I'm cool with that. However after reading one person's review I decided that I would not be buying them. To sum it up, they said something to the effect of how erotic can a book labelled as erotica be when the character refers to her female sexual organs (don't know if I can say the word on here so I won't) as 'down there'. I was tempted to use one of the Kobo 90% off coupons but after reading that review I passed altogether. lol

Yes the sex scenes are very tame. I've read Blaze books that were hotter. The problem is they are long drawn out and always from Anna's point of view and she uses the same words over and over at each scene so it's like rinse and repeat after awhile just a different setting. Who ever buys this for the erotica is going to be severely disappointed. If I didn't know a married woman wrote this I would of have though the author was somewhat inexperienced and just read a bunch of how to BDSM manuals to add to her lack of experience.
