[Review] Initiation (Sex Wizards, book 1) by Alethea Faust

Good writing and lots of good BDSM aspects, written by someone who has either lived it or researched it well. I found this particularly refreshing.

However, this book ended up being a DNF (did not finish) for me. As good as the writing was, and as well portrayed as the BDSM aspects were, the book felt flat. There wasn't much in the way of highs and lows---everything just kind of hit the same note. As such, it felt sloooooowwwww to me. I read to a bit past 30%, but when it didn't pick up, I couldn't persuade myself to invest more time in it.

A+ for the BDSM portrayals, but not great as far as plot and pacing.

3 stars
