A counting game was a wonderful story, not necessarily only around erotica premise, but the storytelling too. I dunno how I stumbled upon it, but I'm glad I did. When I can't find myself doing anything, I read. Random, sleazy stuff usually. Decent enough to kill some time. I walked into it thinking that I was going to read some trashy romantic story/erotica. I was already biased, I assumed that it'd be just another bad story, so all my initial judgements can probably be explained by that.
I didn't intend on reading it so keenly. Skimmed and skipped through the initial pages, thought that the style of writing was a little crude, rushed and unfocused. But it was intriguing because it was extremely articulate. Very unlike what I expected. Her character too.
As I kept reading, I realized (at least I'd like to think) that your writing style perfectly emulates the protagonist, the way she is. As it progressed, as the arc of the character kind of defined itself, the pace and style of the writing changed with it. I found myself reading every detail (the work in the orchid, the bit about the weather, etcetera) which I'm usually very lazy about.
To capture the reader like that, is a beautiful talent to have. The unfurling of the "politics is a rape fantasy." That whole bit was my favorite. The buildup was amazing. It added an element of mystery, and an abruptness, which was unexpected.
Another favorite of mine is when she finally gets with Hey, what she fantasized about, finally happens. That whole scene was written very nicely.
I'm new to Inkitt and this is the third book that I've read, I think? This story was an unexpected one. I really liked it. I'm not sure if you're active, but I felt like I needed to let you know.
I'm an amateur reader, so this by no means is a review or a criticism of your work. Just my thoughts about it. Looking forward to reading more of your works!
