Summary
Kait, Renata, and their guests Ashley and Sam dipped their toes into the confusing and unsanitary waters of creature erotica with Dino Park After Dark by Christie Sims & Alara Branwen. We’re still not convinced it adds up physiologically, but sometimes love is strange. A bonus (for us): it’s the shortest book we’ve read for the podcast, which gives us more time to devote to reading biographies of Alexander Hamilton!
Readers advisory: Here.
Footnotes: Q&A: The Women Who Write Dinosaur Erotica
Savage Love: Back in the Saddle
Oh Joy Sex Toy: Bad Dragon Cock Sheath review (NSFW)
Candy pairing: Ashley says restaurant peppermints, Kait says a bag of gummy dinos with a few gummy penises accidentally mixed in, Renata says bacon-flavor mystery Dum-Dums, Sam says dinosaur egg Peeps.
Coming up next: The President Did Me From Behind And I Liked It, I Got Freaky With Santa Claus And I Liked It, and Bigfoot Did Me From Behind And I Liked It by Raven Blackbird
