I knew this wasn't going to be a conventional read when I decided to pick it up. Admittedly, it's one of the weirder erotica books I've read so far. It is not a high-quality story for sure, yet strangely, I had a shitload of fun reading it. It's definitely the good kind of trashy.
So the gist of the book/series is the power of the vagina is so strong, it can literally stop the Apocalypse. Don't get me wrong, screwing the Horsemen of the Apocalypse until they forget all about their true purpose on earth is really fucking weird, but it's also kind of empowering as well. WOMEN CAN STOP THE APOCALYPSE, GUYS!!! And it's so fucking badass. Be sure, there's little of this book that makes actual sense. For whatever reason, our gal pal Sara Burns was speared by our buddy Pestilence after she set him on fire (yeah, apparently God told him to show her mercy, even though she didn't), to those two actually falling in love, with Pestilence eventually abandoning his purpose and domesticating with Sara (they even had little kiddies in the epilogue). I don't need to tell you that the smut scenes were hot as fuck. Laura Thalassa has an uncanny talent for writing about sex.
Also, you're looking for the most typical female protagonist in contemporary (erotic) literature then look no further. Sara is your girl. Stubborn, brave to the point of idiocy, attractive (duuh), and fighting to convince Pestilence the Conqueror that humans deserve to live...for whatever fucking reason ...more

I'll admit, I liked this A LOT more than I thought I would. I even cried during the epilogue.
I have to say, there's very little that caught me by surprise with this one. A lot of it was almost exactly the same as the previous three books. Not that that surprised me at all, I actually expected it. What I didn't expect, however, were all the new things Laura Thalassa added to her books. Like Death having more POVs, from the beginning of the book, than the other Horsemen combined. Not that it was enough. I definitely needed more than I got but, oh well......more

3 down 1 to go. I seriously can't wait to read Death. I feel he'll be my favourite. Could there be ANYTHING cooler than the personification of Death? Nope! I don't know what Laura Thalassa has done to me, I'm obsessed with this series. Simple, entertaining, spicy. I mean, I know they don't make much sense but the journey's still fun.
It's a lot of the same things, once again. Except for this time, the ending was very very goooood. Very intriguing, very surprising. Especially since all I expected was the exact same thing as the other books. By that I mean, Horseman and female human get together and then have babies and then there's a teaser for the next Horseman. Well...there was a teaser for the next Horseman in this one BUT it was soo different from the others. For one thing, the entire ending of Famine served as a major, fucking awesome tease for Death and what will undoubtedly be a fucking amazing showdown between all the Horsemen and their near-identical paramours (sorry, I had to ...more

Yes, I will finish the entirety of these trashy novels and thoroughly enjoy them, even though, they make little to no sense. I don't know what it is about this series that makes me love it so much despite its flaws, especially, the fact that the story is ALMOST EXACTLY the same in every book. I guess that's the Laura Thalassa magic.
So like I said, there's little difference between books. The main point is always the same. There's a Horseman of the Apocalypse that falls in love with a strong-willed human woman (for some reason or another), who convinces him, primarily with sex, to stop bringing about the Apocalypse (his divine purpose) and give humanity a second chance (which I guess is what God wants since just keeps happening ...more
