A Show & Tell for any book you consider trashy or sensationalist.
Show---if you want to and can find one, the cover art.
Tell---a little of the plot.
If you include a review, in what ways do you agree/disagree with the reviewer?

How did the book attract your attention?

When I first saw this book, I thought it must be one of those Paste Your Own Title things.
The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories
I was thinking either the horses are lesbians or this is an extremely sleazy girl-love book from the late 60s/early 70s.

Modern Christianity and the Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories - Atheist Universe
Asks the question: What do religious books and erotica have in common? If you want to read either you gain the advantage of the 'plain brown wrapper' effect by downloading from the internet, rather than carrying the book around where people can see the title.

Review: The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories | Books | Portland Mercury Reviewer likens it to "Black Beauty" for big girls. (Ummm....maybe. If the girls are really horny. I guess. I don't agree that this is great fun and I will like the characters.)

The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories by Alisa Surkis and Monica Nolan | Vulpes Libris Reviewer was disappointed that an amusing premise was stretched so thin. (I think so, too.)

Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories (I agree with most of the points made in this very short review: that it is a spoof; it could be campier; the wit of the cover exceeds the contents.)

A 2 minute excerpt read aloud, although not very loudly.

How did it attract my attention?
I was confused by the title.
It seemed to me that the words "Lesbian Horse" went together, but
apparently the intention in this title is that the word Lesbian modifies "Horse Stories."

Carrying it around so that people can see the title is the whole reason I'd want that book. Makes me wish bookstores were still a thing; I imagine the look on the cashier's face when I hand it to them would be far more satisfying than actually reading it.
