Hungry

This needs TRIGGER WARNINGS: Rape and Step parent incest.

This book is broken into stories as told by four friends. Some of the stories are WAY out there. I question if these were truly written by an African American woman. However a friend stated that there are outliers in every group. The rating is based on the stories being well written even if the scenarios are implausible.

I was not sure what to expect when I started reading this book. It is an intriguing mix of horror, erotica, kink and social examination. The stories contained within are unapologetic, erotic and filled with emotions. If you are a fan of erotica definitely give it a go, caution though it is not for the faint at heart. Some stories were disgusting but were riveting. Take a chance on this no taboo book if you dare. 

*Thanks to BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for this Ebook in exchange for my honest review

Hungry is not for the faint at heart. I repeat. It is NOT for the faint at heart. You should be over 21 before you read, dare I say 40. If you have ever read Eros’s books, this author is his twin in pen. 

Hungry is a collection of short erotic tales that mesh humor, romance, and horror together. The title, the cover, and synopsis are to be taken exactly as it looks and states because it is. Each tale delivers a deep personal turmoil and life lessons through sexual prowess. It is uncomfortable as I had to read several parts with one eye closed and clutching my imaginary pearls. The beauty of it is that it’s meant to be written this way. The author was intentional on showcasing the bitterness in writing as a way of liberation. So it is as freeing as it is shocking. Once you allow yourself to immerse in the tales with an open mind, you understand that even the raunchiest of stories can deliver powerful messages. The scariest and most grotesque story and yet surprisingly my favorite was Bumping Uglies. My only caveat are the few instances of grammatical errors throughout. Again, I must stress this is not your ordinary erotica, but it most definitely is a game changer. 

Thank you NetGalley for this book and we are voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Book Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hungry Erotic Stories for Angry Black Women by Irmengarde Lubido

Sexual Trigger warning: rape, incest, and sodomy are described vividly in this book. Those who are sensitive to these subjects be warned.

This book is broken into stories as told by four friends. Extremely graphic and detailed stories. This is not a book for young people and please be warned as to the level of intensity this book delivers. 

Each story delivers a deep personal turmoil and life lesson through sexual prowess. It may be a bit uncomfortable at first it left me, as the old-timers would say clutching my pearls. The intricate style of writing is meant to grab your attention this way. The author was intentional in showcasing the bitterness in writing as a way of liberation.
