What are the smuttiest, most erotic non-"romance" books you've read?

[SamScribble]

Another thought: The Rachel Papers by Martin Amis. It's also very funny - although probably more so if you grew up in England.

Yep, the 1960s, I'm an older person ....I also masturbated to sections of Fanny Hill and Portnoy's Complaint ....

Harold Robbins "Goodbye, Janette" has some fairly taboo subject matter and explicit S&M scenes.

Boggled my mind the first time I read it. Of course I was 11 or 12 at the time and had swiped the book from my mother

And Quiver by Tobsha Learner, it's a collection of short stories.

I have ordered both...just to share and celebrate a day of wonderful contact, a beautiful heart, a gorgeous face and a real woman in my thoughts...

Jacqueline Careys books are all great. She just wrapped a new trilogy set about 100 years after the first Kushiel book. Titles all have Naamah

Definitely cant go wrong w JR Ward either. I think she has the sexiest vampires. And the more recent books explore some new areas

But i have to say (and I can't believe they haven't been mentioned!) is Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series is fantastic. An amazingly sensual and sexual love story that covers many years over 7 books ( and counting!). Some great similarities between Gabaladon's Jamie and Carey's Jocelyn

One last suggestion a new romance, is Yours to keep by Shannon Stacey. It's a pretty traditional romance but I thought the sex was quite hot. Only avilable in ebook form right now

Its set in prehistoric times following the life of a young woman. The sex scenes carry on for numerous pages and are extremely descriptive. I read this book when I was about 14 and learned a LOT. Well worth a read.

The whole series is well written and the sex scenes are hot.

Kelley Armstrong is my favorite authour!

If you want something with a sense of humour, "Switch Bitch" by Roald Dahl, it is a bunch of short stories written for Playboy. He also wrote "My Uncle Oswald". Every once in a while, you think "He wrote 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' and that makes it funnier and kinkier

Every book I was going to list has been mentioned already. I can't suggest The Pearl enough. I have to scan my library for other suggestions. By the way, anyone use Goodreads? I find it a very good site for cataloging the books I've read and sharing with other people with my tastes.

I liked most of the Mammoth Hunters, but have to admit I was disappointed in Painted Caves. I felt like most of it was a laborious retelling of what's come before and the audience didn't really learn anything new. Also, I felt like there was major deviation from the way she previously depicted at least one of the major characters.

I'm glad I ended up borrowing that one from the library instead of purchasing it outright.

Painted Caves must be the latest, because I haven't heard of it. Sounds like I'm not missing any thing.

Infinity Inc...yeah, I read some of them but don't remember too much eroticism. I always liked the Huntress though. The Conan and Red Sonja comics were always good for scantily-clad gals...and dudes, too, if that's your thing

The unexpected smut that I found, as a kid, were western series. One was called Longarm and there was another about a redhead agent of some sort and her Indian partner, who both got lots of action while working their cases. Those were the reason that I always headed for the book section while my mom bought groceries.

Not sure if anybody has mentioned Henry Miller's trilogy of Sexus, Nexus and Plexus - certainly had me hard as a teenager and into my 40's. ;-)

[carsonbizotica]

Pornucopia by Piers Anthony. A man with swappable penises, and his adventures with a succubus. It can be pretty bad at points, but I don't think he was going for quality with this one...

it is, and its not bad, its just really slow in the middle. that and theres a lot less sex. lol. but the middle few (valley of the horses - plains of passage) definitely have a lot of really hot scenes, ive fantasized about more than one of the characters.

[MiGuy1953]

I just got a Kindle and I can now have a really hot book going and no one is the wiser,,, unless I really let on.
i found and am exploring a group called Kindle Smut, it is a group that is available thru Goodreads.
Take a look, got some good stuff,
Also Amazon has some good erotic fiction that is free on their site..
\Good luck,, keep this going!!

[tomwantstosee]

A good one is by Nancy Friday: Women´s Sexual Fantasies - probably as good as literotica, but written in a time when sexuality still was an adventure.
Henry Miller´s Sexus is great too.
And there are so many others...

"Captive Girl" by Jennifer Pelland. Technically not a book, but I read it in a collection of Nebula Award winners for 2007 (the story wasn't an award winner, but one of the nominees for Best Short Story). It was surprisingly erotic for a mainstream sci-fi story, and can be read online.

[Sweet_Jenna]

I was hoping someone would have commented about Fifty Shades of Grey (by E.L. James), but I didn't see anything here about it. Since it's technically considered an erotic novel (despite not having Fabio or flowers on the cover), that might be the reason it's not mentioned here. I dunno.

I haven't read it. I've heard/read completely polarizing reviews. Some people love it, some hate it. I'm tempted to give it a shot, but have little patience for poor literary craftsmanship. Has anyone here read it?

[jodylee]

I didn't bother going through 7 pages, but I am quite partial to Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series... all the books are wonderful and have lots of steamy sex scenes of many different kinds! They are wonderful historical novels (sizeable too), and you won't regret reading them.

[Clitlicker7]

My wife is reading the trilogy just now and she says that is hot and spicy. She says the a few first chapters develop the characters but then it get hot and moist!!! I can verify this !!!!!!
