A review by annieb85
Fanny Hill, or Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John Cleland

3.0

I had never heard of this book and came across it completely by accident while perusing the free books available for my e-reader. I love reading classic novels and thought I would give it a shot. It's definitely not your average classic novel, which is clear early on- in fact I stopped to look up the publication date because I was so shocked at the content. The book starts off okay and seems to have some direction, but it soon seems to become sex scene after sex scene and loses any plot that it had. I almost gave this book 2 stars, but seeing as I did enjoy the very explicit and sometimes hilarious descriptions of Fanny's exploits I decided to give it 3 stars- who knew there were so many ways to describe the male genetalia????
