The thirty-second book: #32 Fanny Hill - John Cleland

Let's just say I have a lot of reading time on my hands at the moment.

It was interesting to read some early erotica - possibly the first of its kind. It's certainly well written, and (possibly also because of its subject matter) more engaging than other works I've gotten to recently. It doesn't go too pretentious, while still putting in descriptions that go beyond the literal. It's an easier read - even if the sexual scenes did drag on in a few places.

There were times when this was an awkward read, but considering how I breezed through it, it worked as a good distraction most of the time. More recommended from me than more proper novels.
