The Juliette Society By Sasha Grey

[amazon_link id=”0751551589″ target=”_blank” ][/amazon_link]’The Juliette Society’ is Sasha Grey’s debut novel.

Catherine, a blossoming film student whose sexuality has recently been stirred, finds herself drawn into a secret club where the world’s most powerful people meet to explore their deepest often darkest sexual fantasies. But even as these new experiences open intense new pleasures for Catherine, they also threaten to destroy everything that she holds dear.

OK, I’ll be honest I didn’t like this book. I don’t like writing that as I fully understand the time and effort that is involved with writing a book, but with ‘The Juliette Society’ there was nothing about it that warmed to me, well the cover is very pretty but also misleading as ‘The Juliette Society’ is hardly mentioned in the book. Try as I might to find a positive to the book, I found it hard. Although there were occasions when I liked Catherine when she wasn’t absorbed in herself or her fantasies, she was actually quite a sweet girl

I found the story, dark and occasionally twisted as the story explored the darker thoughts of Catherine, her passions, desires as she longed for a more fruitful, explorative life and often she escaped on wild tangents of thoughts, that initially made for shocking reading but then it became quite repetitive in parts and felt the sole reason behind this book was simply too shock, but in the end I just didn’t find it a pleasant reading experience. Having reading ‘The Fifty Shades of Grey’ series and particularly enjoyed the ‘Fire After Dark’ series, I have come to the conclusion that I no longer have a desire to read this genre anymore but for all those who are still enjoying the current trend of Erotic Fiction books and are eager to read more about the darker side of sex and love then ‘The Juliette Society’ maybe just be the book for you but sadly this was not the case for me.
