HE SAID, SHE SAID is a monthly feature created and hosted by Rachel @ Confessions of a Book Geek and Joey @ thoughts and afterthoughts where formality is thrown out the window in no-holds-barred discussions on all things bookish.

So far, Rachel and I have explored sex in fiction through: [Part I: Let’s Get It On: Sex In NA/Adult Fiction] and [Part II: Birds and the Bees: Sex in YA Fiction], and now with the recent release of the much-anticipated 50 Shades of Grey, it’s finally time to tackle the third and final sexy post: erotic fiction.
