- Wow....I looked at the Madonna book.....(no I did not buy it). I got to
- the part with the dog and closed it. No I do not think it should be burned, but
- I am not entirely sure that it should be in the "non erotica" book stores
- either. Can we clarify something here.....erotica and romance...what's the
- difference? When I think of Romance, I think of feelings and love. When I think
- of Erotica I think of nudity and sex. Is this about right?
