A great collection of short steamy reads that showcase a diversity and different fetishes set in a time gone by when everything was far more taboo than it is now.

I enjoyed some more than others but that is always to be expected in books like these. Would recommend for erotica readers who would like to explore a variety of kinks

Fetish was different than other books I’ve read as it is full of short stories written from the perspective of different erotic/fetishes. I found each story to be written well, some peaked my interest more than others but all were intriguing.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This book had SO much spice. It was way different than most of the books I read on a regular basis, but still worthy of the 3 stars I gave! The only downfall was the time period of the stories….I wasn’t expecting that! However…still spicy and still enjoyable!

This is a fabulous collection of short erotic stories based in the 1800’s. Each story has a different theme and the author gives a warning before each story of the sensitive nature. It was well written and each book was very entertaining. Remember this is based in the 1800’s so the implements used are somewhat different than what is used today. The author does make notes of this before hand as well. Overall a fantastic read!!

Thank you to Entangled Publishing and Netgalley for sending me an e-ARC of this book to read and review. These short stories are fun and I like how compact they are. It makes it kind of fun to jump back and forth if I'm in the mood for one over the other. I like the historical setting and how each story ended up focusing on a different fetish. It was definitely spicy which was fun, but some of the stories really weren't for me. This is quick though and can be a nice change of pace if you need something spicy.

Once I read the summery of this book, I was very interested. It seemed like it was right up my alley, and it was. Some stories I liked better than others, and that's okay! I felt like this book had a little bit of everything. Overall, I would give this a 4/5 star rating because I loved reading about the fetishes from a historical point of view. I think no matter what your into this story has a little bit of something for everyone.

This book is different from what I expected, but I still thought it was a good collection of stories. I think the main thing is that the description and the cover don't match the contents and that discrepancy is a bit jarring. Expectations aside, the writing was interesting and original takes on fetishes in a historical point of view..

This erotica gives you many options to choose from - I love that there are many stories which gives you a chance to choose what you fancy. Some of the stories weren't my cup of tea just based on the content but I knew that from the jump - the little blurb before each story was fantastic.

I enjoy the stores depth and sex scenes

I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of short stories. They were dirty and kinky and a perfect mix. They also felt fairly inclusive and non-judgmental. I appreciated the content warning before each story as well. This was well done and I would definitely recommend it.

Sadly, I wasn't a huge fan of this one. Some of the stories were fun reads, but some of the others weren't anything I was interested in reading. That's the problem with all anthologies though - you like some, you hate some. My problem with this was that I disliked more than I liked. So, most of these were well written, they just weren't for me

Wow I really enjoyed this. I was not expecting it to be a lot of short stories before reading it. But I am glad it was because it helped to get right to the action without it a lot of story building and I got to read about a lot of different things in one book.

Thank you to NetGalley for the eARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Well. I definitely didn’t expect this book to be what it was. This was one where I should’ve read the reviews before hand. It’s a well written book but it’s set 100 or so years ago in each chapter. Which is not my cup of tea.

I enjoy short story erotica because gives you little snippets of a variety of things and it's generally very easy to read, really good for causal readers. This was a quick read, and the stories were very diverse, but it wasn't quite my cup of tea. However, I don't think it was a writing issue at all, I think it's a book jacket issue.

For example, nothing about this indicates that all of these stories are set like 100 years ago. When the first story opened with, "July, 1878", I figured it was just the first story.....but then all of them were set that long ago. I strongly prefer modern stories, so I wish they would put that in the description. Additionally many of the stories were quite crass and that's a very specific kind of reader. Obviously erotica is graphic, but I could live without the word 'c**t" being used 500 times. Again, just a personal preference not at all a knock on the writer, but I would have picked one of the more crass stories to feature in the description so people know what they're getting into.

Overall, the writing was good, it's' a very quick read, the cover is eye catching.....but I really believe a major overhaul on the description would help the book land with the audience it's looking for because it's definitely not the casual erotica reader.

This erotic collection was short and to the point. It included several different sexy stories that I enjoyed. I wish that the collection was a little longer, but overall it was a good read.

Thank you NetGalley for a chance to read Fetish.

I was intrigued by the cover and the description, however I couldn’t get into the stories. They were set in the past and I didn’t love the writing style.

I found this book confusing. I usually love this genre but this book didn’t draw me in. The writing is fine, but it didn’t give me the wow factor. Unfortunately not my taste.

Not what I expected.
All the stories were set in the 1800s
They were mildly entertaining but very short and semi confusing at times.

Take a journey through time as we explore the fetishes of the characters in the book. From the 1800s to the 21st century. There is something for everyone. This book will tittilate your senses and cause goosebumps and sensations in places you dare not mention. I can't wait to share it with friends who will find it deliciously erotic.
