“Emma’s New Year”

Reviewer

I met Ameliah Faith through a contact I made with a lesbian reading group on Facebook.  She is a reader from MN who enjoys a steamy lesbian romance. Ameliah says of herself, “I crave the written word like other people crave chocolate.”

Not a professional reviewer but an avid reader. Just who I was looking for. I sent her an early ARC of “Emma’s New Year” for a fair and honest review.

Here’s what she had to say after reading.

“This book is a very sweet and tender love story with just a dash of steamy sex to enhance the encounter. I enjoyed watching the story from Emma’s perspective as she took the step into the world of Lesbian love. She is likable and endearing. I think we all understand what she goes through. Thank you for taking me on her trip Ms. Glenn. I will be reading more from you.”

I think I’ve settled on this blurb for the story. But I’d like to hear which one blog readers like the best. So vote in the comments for the blurb you like best.

Blurb 1:

Emma Reed needs a change from her stale boring straight life. Her lesbian friend drags her to a gay New Year’s Eve dance. There she meets butchy El Westin, out of her league and out of her comfort zone. The unexpected kiss at midnight makes Emma’s outlook start to sparkle and get interesting again. Emma has a choice to make. Is this a night of possibilities influenced by the magic of a borrowed amethyst necklace or is it a resolution in the making?

or

Blurb 2:

Convinced to ring in the New Year at a gay club with a lesbian friend, straight girl Emma Reed gets a little more than she expects when she meets El Westin. Maybe there was something magical about that Amethyst necklace she’d borrowed for the night. Or perhaps her resistance was lowered by the fruity concoction, Hawaiian Iced Tea, she’d been drinking. Her immediate attraction to El sent up fireworks and it wasn’t even midnight. Would one night of wild sex be the start of a New Year, New life them both or end up being just another big mistake.

Blue is the Warmest Color

SPOILER ALERT

If good movies evoke emotion then this one is a good movie. However, I’m not going to list it as one of the movies I’ve liked. The review called it a “seriously sexy lesbian coming of age movie”.

See Review:

Let’s start with that. Seriously sexy? If you like writhing and moaning and action that most lesbians would consider foreplay… then okay. Here’s the bottom line. Think of straight girl on girl light porn sex orchestrated by a middle aged man with lots of ass smacking and grabbing with the writhing and moaning. Yeah, you’ve got it.

And the director and screen play writer had a chance to write something beautiful that diverted from the sterotypical tropes of the lesbian movies of the 80’s and 90’s. You know the ones that conformed to the straight girl meets lesbian, great sex, great love, breaks lesbian’s heart and ends with tragic sadness and perhaps going back to straight guys.

Yep that was the plot in a nutshell. Same old-hat trope of the last two decades. Sad tragic ending of lost soul mates never to be together again.

The movie did make you think and it did evoke emotion. I’m not sure the feelings I walked away from the theatre with were ones that were intended by the producer and director.

This was not a romance. And my opinion as an erotic romance writer, it wasn’t even THAT erotic…unless you’re a middle aged straight guy. Then maybe it was erotic.

EPIC FAIL if you wanted a hot erotic lesbian romance with a happy ending.

I’d love to hear from others who saw this film. What did you think?
