The Academy, I hate to write I book review but, damn, this is a new level of smutty novel. It intermingles the stock market and sex. It deromanticizes sex to the point where nothing but raw slave sex is left. No feelings are mixed in just business. I never considered that taking out all emotion from sex and turning it into a trade would work for me but Im only 50 pages in and Im hooked. It even compares to Story of O in my mind and those are high standards to reach. But The Academy has a more detached, cold, modern feel to it. It makes me feel used.
