"Bed and Breakfast" by Mat Twassel (friendly bdsm) 10, 9, 9
"Bed and Breakfast" by Mat Twassel (mmtwassel@aol.com) 10, 9, 9 The husband has to rush off to work, leaving his wife with nothing to do; and so she writes him an erotic letter and mails it to him. It arrives at the office a few days later, and then her arranges a reward for her. The main part of this "story" is really a you-narrative, and I usually hate that style of writing, unless I am the "you." However, this one is fine, because there's a sensible reason for the letter writer to talk about what she is doing to "you." What the author manages to do is actually quite complex: We can imagine the wife while she is writing the description of what she is imagining doing to the husband. Of course we can also imagine the events she is describing. And we can imagine what the husband is imagining while he is reading the message. The whole thing is complex, but the author carries it off very well. Ratings "Bed and Breakfast" Athena (technical quality): 10 Venus (plot & character): 9 Celeste (appeal to reviewer): 9 |
