I really enjoyed this book. Brie Bennett is an interesting young character with courage to spare. It was originally posted in 9 parts each walking you through Brie's steps to learning the art of being a submissive. It is true to the genre and fun to read. ( )

For what this book is --- it is an excellent choice! This is not going to win any literary kudos, but is a great read. The story's premise is interesting, there is a school to learn to be a submissive and the book follows Brie's progression through the subjects of the school. From pain to pleasure and everything in between Brie learns to submit to her Dom/Domme. She is a very good girl and in the end gets to accept the collar of her new Master, who ever that will be! ( )

This story really got under my skin, in a good way. I wish there was a submissive training center somewhere. ( )

★★★★★Brie Learns the Art of Submission:Submissive Training Center by Red Phoenix (Brie #1-9)

The is a BDSM erotica.

The entire book caught me off guard. I had no real expectations when I read part 1. It was a freebie, and I figured I'd give it a shot. And, WOW! I was quickly drawn in, with no looking back. After Graduation is already loaded, and I can't wait to start.

I liked it. I thought it offered a nice introduction into many aspects of bdsm. The emphasis is on action, not character building, although there is enough there to form an image of the 'players'.

Around halfway through the book I had trouble getting in to a new chapter. Each of the chapters seemed to have its own tension buildup and climax (no pun intended). For me that meant that the book's overall tension followed the trajectory that you see when a pebble is thrown at the lakeside, hopping and dipping along its trajectory until it finally sinks.

There were places where I had trouble with the contents, particularly the manner of investigating and choosing a master in the final chapter. ( )
