I’m convinced Jamaica Layne is a psuedonym for 4chan.

“Mabel plunges her arm into me well past her wrist…”

OMG,if this was supposed to turn anyone on, I think it missed the mark. Gives a new vision to “tickled my tonsils.”

Thanks for the laughs, Jane. You did a wonderful job

@rebyj:
I actually bought this book through itunes. I had to take a road trip alone. I put this in the last few hours and it was hysterical. The reader reads like a comedian. She made it as if it were written as a Mel Brooks play. I have to say I was entertained and lol for those last few hours of the trip. The thought did cross my mind as I was listening “she’s making fun of ER” and it made me laugh even harder! It takes a good sense of humor to find this far fetch fantasy worth listening to because it cant possibly be anything other than a comedic joke geared toward all of us that read romance and erotica. I bought it because Ravenous audios through itunes are $10. For the price I wasn’t disappointed because it got me through a long day behind the wheel and made the time fly by. I had no other expectations with the purchase other than a Historical Romance (not).It should be advertised as a comedy so you know what your getting. The cover needs to be changed to something like “Fiona and Donkey” from Shrek…Well, maybe not Donkey but you know what i’m getting at.

Just for the record… yeah, the spinning top thing is NOT a good thing to do to a man. An ex-boyfriend and I tried it once. Got halfway and he was almost in tears from the twisting. Never again!

Hallelujah! I think you can’t do worse than with this book. Thanks for the review, Jane, wonderfully snide.

This sounds like a man wrote it and is using a female pseudoname. No real woman would use these euphamisms to describe her body parts, especially the “C” word. This can’t turn any real woman on. What a crock!

[...] After reading this book, I am vowing not to read another book with “Knight” in the title. Knight of My Dreams was suggested to me by a friend and I had heard that you appeared on several ebook bestseller lists. From the opening chapter, I knew I had found a book that might rival my other favorite Knight story. [...]

@Shae:

Codpieces were developed to cover the join in hose when doublets shortened, so guys wouldn’t be hanging out and shocking people. There’s no solid evidence for any syphilis connection, and knowing 16th century reenactors, I think it’s doubtful–a codpiece sits on the abdomen, well above a guy’s junk.

That said, as a euphemism for penis…I don’t know WHAT.

But I’m still stuck on “queeb”. QUEEB?!

I’ve seen the “14 year old boy’s wet dream” argument used near the top of the comments. Let me just say that I was a fourteen-year-old boy once (I’m nineteen now) and none of my squickiest desires could possibly live up to this shite.

I just sort of stumbled on this site through TVTropes, and while I don’t intend to read this sort of thing, even the good ones, I like snarky reviewing. This was an excellent review, Jane, keep it up!
