What did you think of the erotic scenes?
But maybe that's just me. Maybe that would have made the book too adult. What did you think?

Very true. It is possible and so if the author had decided to include these scenes then there was no better option than to do it well.

What is your stance on these types of scenes? You say that it hasn't changed; I'm curious to hear your thoughts on them in general. I think, if done correctly, they can really add a lot of a book. The inverse is also true.

I wouldn't qualify the sex scenes in this book as erotic or slightly pornographic. Short of saying, "...and then they made love," the author just include some tacky euphemisms and included so little detail. I think I would have preferred she completely ignore the act itself to her poor treatment of it.

Just a heads up, the author is a woman.
