Ellen Reads 50 Shades of Grey - Youtube video

Seriously LOVE this video from YouTube! Ellen reads the erotic novel "50 Shades of Grey" (or at least attempts to). 


I've read lots of erotic novels and I have no idea what has caused this particular story, 50 Shades to take the world by storm. Whatever it was, I love that it has. I hope it opens the eyes of many curious people and perhaps they'll be interested in looking into some other great erotic BDSM books. The book blogging community can recommend some awesome ones. We all have our favourites and there are many different styles of BDSM books to enjoy. 


Here are some that I have read and I consider memorable. 
Anne Rice's Sleeping Beauty series is way out there in fairy tale land. That book series is not even remotely realistic so don't take it as such. Go in with a W I D E open mind. 


I love Shayla Black's Wicked Ties. Probably one of my all time favourite BDSM books. Kinky hot!


Lauren Dane's Second Chances has a true romance mixed in with the BDSM. 


Brynn Paulin has a super sexy erotic series called, Taboo Wishes. I find those are my little guilty pleasures. 


My two favourite Claire Thompson books are about two bisexual men who become masters over a submissive female, Alex. Two Master's for Alex and the follow up book, Two Loves for Alex were awesome reads.


BDSM books are not created equal and the above are just a few of my favourites. You will notice that even though they have BDSM content, they do vary in discipline. If you ask another blogger to give you a short list, you'd get an entirely different list. 


Have you tried a BDSM erotic novel? Do you have some favourites? If you do, please share. I am always interested in trying out a new author that comes highly recommended.
