Yeah, that's my fault.

I try to go through all the links about once a week to see if anything has been removed but I've been slacking lately.

The Second Ship (The Rho Agenda: Book One) by Richard Phillips - $0.99 [Technothriller]

Quote:
For sixty years, the National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, has been investigating the powerful technologies of a damaged alien ship, an effort dubbed the 'Rho Project.' Now, the American government is ready to share the Rho Project discoveries with the world. But as the world scrambles to adopt the alien technologies, three high schoolers make another shocking discovery: hidden inside a cave in the New Mexico wilderness lies another alien ship. As the friends explore the second ship, they begin to unravel a decades-long secret involving an extraterrestrial war, government cover-ups, and secret experimentation using alien technology on humans. A battle has begun, and the secrets of the second ship may be the key to humanity's last chance for survival.
The author also made book 2 avaliable on the Kindle months before the actual paperback release.

Call Me (Joker's Wild Series) by Lena Matthews. This one definitely isn't for everyone, so be sure to read the warning and book description before one-clicking, even though it is free.

Book Description

Anything can happen when jokers are wild. When Kayla Martin tries to revolutionize the sex toy industry she calls on the one person she's grown to count on more than anyone else, her best friend and downstairs neighbor, Dylan Thompson. When Kayla approaches him about being a test subject for her newest invention,
Spoiler:
an anal toy
, Dylan is intrigued and aroused. That is until he finds out that
Spoiler:
The Walnut Wand is an anal toy for men
. Kayla's sure that
Spoiler:
a prostate stimulator
will be a hit, all she needs is a willing participant. Far from willing, Dylan flat out refuses, but that's not enough to deter Kayla. After their monthly poker game, Dylan and Kayla decide to make a risky bet. Kayla wants a test subject and Dylan wants the one thing's he's being craving for years. They'll risk it all on one hand, but anything can happen when jokers are wild.


Warning: This title contains the following: explicit language, use of
Spoiler:
sexual aids
and
Spoiler:
graphic sex.

I'm not bothered by much, and to each his own with regard to the books they choose, but the description posted for Call Me is more than I needed to know. In my view descriptions need to be 'suitable for all audiences' like trailers at the movies, and this one goes past that into 'rated R' territory. I wouldn't want my adolescent reading the post as is, and it seems to me that a bit of editing would solve the concern without losing the intent of the announcement. JMHO.

I'm actually glad that the description was that graphic. If it wasn't, I probably would have listed it under Romance instead of Erotica where it belongs.

I don't think we any of the users here are under 16 so it shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Well, not to beat a dead horse here, but I wouldn't assume everyone perusing the listing to be older. It is wide open to anyone, and Kindles make good gifts to techie adolescents...

I also appreciate you classifying it properly, I just think a few nips and cuts to the description would take care of the concern without really losing anything for the potential reader. I don't mean to perpetuate the point or sidetrack the thread, I have had my say and will let it rest (hoping to have slightly influenced the process, of course).

Even if she clipped the description, there's nothing stopping the (hypothetical) kid from downloading the book to their Kindle. Worse, what if they read the edited description and thought it sounded good (alot of girls read Harlequin-ish novels). Instead of reading a paragraph of kinky filth, they would read 201 pages full of it.

I've never been a fan of the "it's for the children" argument but it's up to koland whether she's edits her post. If I was her, I wouldn't change a thing.
