Not my usual.. Some stories were a little more interesting than others. ARC provided by NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.

This book of short stories are good hot feminist erotica. The stories are imaginative and evocative and are lovingly written.

For the most part, this collection didn't do it for me. Too much was futuristic and the pieces were disparate for me.

Thank you to NetGalley for this copy of the book!

W-O-W!

Writing erotica is always a coin toss. You never know what you're getting because every person and their sexuality is different. This book is a compillation of many short stories from many different authors, guaranteeing that there is something for everyone and every taste.

Short and steamy, not so soft and not so hardcore. These stories covered many fantasies, situations and possibilities in ways sure to find a welcoming reader. With different types of narrators and a variety of topics, it's definitely a book where you can find something for you or anyone.

These provocative shorts range from the mundane to the highly specific, but every woman is sure to find something here she identifies with. Single or not, of whatever age, new mom, trans, Covid-19 locked down, inhibited, or what have you, this book delivers on its promise.

A little something for everyone. I didn't care for the stories set in Covid times, because it's too soon and I wanted some escapism, but the authors found creative ways to incorporate quarantine.

Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for the ARC to review. All opinions are my own.

This book is a collection of short stories focusing on the female body and the many ways she can have an orgasm. The book was a quick read fr me and was good.

Each story was a different place, setting, situation, and characters. Some of the stories I really enjoyed and some no so much. Overall not a bad read. Don't look for in-death storylines or well-developed characters but overall a good read.

My personal favorite was the first one that involved a book store owner and a librarian. But of course we saw that coming with my love of books..lol

Coming Soon is a collection of erotic short stories aimed at women. They are written by a variety of authors and cover a wide range of subjects and fancies. There really is something for everyone. If you don't like a particular story just move on to the next one. They are quite short so cover the material at a high level so you don't get to know the characters or plot in any depth. They are a bit of spicy fun.

This book is not soft core but it is also not hardcore either. This was a very comprehensive collection that has a little something for everyone. The stories are well-written and engaging from all different perspectives. It is inclusive of all gender identities and expressions and sexual orientation. There is no judgment or expectations of what they “should” want or enjoy during sex. This makes it the perfect book for everyone.

Not so softcore and not very hard core. This was a collection of short erotic stories of many women. It was a something for everything package. Erotic stories of women seeking pleasure in different ways. Each story creates a different excitement. Short and engaging stories.

Well written and steamy. Although there was one story which I was imagining to be a guy on girl action untill use of multiple "she" instead of "he" got me all confused. Another thing, most stories didn't have an introduction about the characters, which makes it hard to visualise.

A very arousing collection of short stories by various authors. There is something for anyone in the collection. I found this book highly enjoyable.

Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I really enjoyed this one, but mostly because it made me think about different perspectives and situations....but I don't think that's the point of erotica,

For example, the story about the older couple really straddled the line between gross and endearing. I'm still not sure what to make of that.

The story about the couple with the newborn....eeek. Perfectly captured the difficulty of sex after kids, but that's too close to home for me and while I realize it ended well, it just wasn't sexy at all.

The photographer had me other than the anal plugs, though I will say it was pretty tastefully done (rather than being super graphic and over the top) which is a pretty freaking difficult thing to do since you're literally talking about sticking something up someone's butt.

I don't know. I'm intrigued, but again, not necessarily the point of erotica.

Very erotic and exciting and tintillating. Definitely got me in the mood and aroused me.

Read alone! Lol

A variety of erotic short stories devoted to the pleasure of the woman. Some stories are romantic, some BDSM, some are thrill seeking sex with a stranger...all of them are provocative.
Read best with a moment to have that orgasm......

I found this book to be really good at 'getting things started', however, it wasn't my favourite read because I feel as if the majority of the stories were just that bit too short to really have the 'desired outcome' that I think a lot of people are searching for. I kind of felt a little bit of disappointment because, as a reader, you're getting into the story, and then the pace is slowed right down again because we're starting a new storyline.

In a writing sense, the individual stories were all crafted very well and were all very different from one another. This book gives you that sense of variety that lets you explore a little more in the subcategories of this kind of literature.

There's something for everyone in this collection of short erotica stories. If you don't enjoy one story, just skip it and on to the next one!

I didn’t really know what to expect from Coming Soon, but I’m really glad my request for this book was approved. This isn’t a genre I normally read. However, it is now a genre that I’ll be looking into a little more.

These stories contain a little bit of something for everyone, I think. There are several stories that I wish could’ve gone longer but this isn’t so much a deal breaker or anything. Read to Me, which is where we start in this book, was my favorite. Dirty library sex? Yeah, that would be alright. It’s just fun to live vicariously through some of these characters. It’s 4 stars from me.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Xpress Book Tours for the ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading this book. Sure, I read the reviews, but I had questions. Were the stories going to be straight-up porn stories like the ones on Literotica or were they going to be porn-with-plot stories like the ones on Wattpad. I kept my expectations low because more often than not, erotica, even the ones written by women, tend to focus on sexualizing the physical body rather than the sensual pleasure of sex.

I was pleasantly surprised. This collection contains stories for just about anyone. There are straight characters, queer characters, characters in quarantine (hints pointed to the dreaded C-19), doms, dommes, and the list goes on. I made it a point to read even the stories that didn't fit my preferences, and even though I didn't find them hot *hot,* I could still appreciate the great storytelling.

Sure, I wished some stories had more of a plot. And more times than not, I wanted the story to continue. Sometimes, the barest details about each character was given; it was up to the reader to draw conclusions based on subtle clues. That was frustrating, but I guess it also added to the intrigue.
