I try not to brag when I single-handedly positively affect people’s lives.
But I’m giving myself a pass to brag this time because it’s blatantly clear that I am changing the lives of others.
On April 25th, short 8 weeks ago, I published the first of several book recommendation posts in what I call Kindle of Ill Repute.
• Smut Book Recommendations
• More Smut Book Recommendations
• Vampire Smut Book Recommendations
In the wake of the initial surge of the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy’s popularity, my smutty friends and I needed to find books similar in smutty nature. At first, I depended on the bestseller lists on Amazon.com
On the initial list of 8 romance/erotica/smut books I recommended (not including the Fifty Shades books), several of the books were ones I highly recommended. Judging from my Amazon.com affiliate penny-making machine, many of you guys took my advice and bought the books I suggested.
But what more clearly points to my influence on the smut book-buying audience is this:
It’s not a coincidence that FOUR of those initial 8 books I recommended (and rated on my own very shallow scale) are now New York Times Bestsellers.
 On the Island Overall: 3/5 |
 The Marriage Bargain Overall: 4/5 |
 Beautiful Disaster Overall: 4/5 |
 Bared to You Overall: 5/5 |
Yup.
Methinks I’m starting the new Oprah Book Club.
Thanks to Brittany (and the fact that I read this in record time), the next book to enter the Bestsellers list?
Backstage Pass by Olivia Cunning
Overall: 5/5
You’re welcome, society.

Paranormal just isn’t my thing. I’ve tried, but anything past fake vampires gets too complicated for my simple mind.

Keep up the good work. I am always interested in smut rec’s, and it’s not like I’m going to ask my mom for ideas (though I bet I could) (which is exactly why I don’t).
Ew. Creepy. *puke*

It was about time erotica made it on the NYT bestseller list
Personally, I swear by the Merry Gentry Series!
