I’m almost finished reading a book by a popular author. No I won’t name the person, but I’m almost to the point where I want to go back and count the number of times this person has used the following sentence.
Her womb clenched.
Any comments?

In general I read and review both romance and urban fantasy books.
Scooper Speaks accepts and reviews advanced and review copies of books from authors, publishers and publicists. However, most of the books reviewed here are ones which I have purchased.
Scooper Speaks
Oh, boy. I mean, I get that a writer doesn’t want to seem like she’s using all the same phrases as everybody else–you want to be fresh and all! – but this sounds a bit off the mark.
This idea is giving me cramps. Sorry.
Oh my! Hmm. It might be interesting just to see how many times the author does use a phrase like that. 😉
Is she giving birth?
I hate that phrase too. It pulls me out of the book every time b/c I wonder if it’s even possible.
I don’t have one any more. I can’t feel it. I feel left out.
Yikes! Just the idea of “clenching”. :shudder: Not sexy.
We need a doctor’s opinion.
Like someone else said, it rather sounds like cramps. lol

CarolynJean: Once I became aware of it, I was like a dog. I love this author. I read most of her books, but this line about worked my last nerve.
Susan and Kimberly: Sloppy sex?
Literary Feline: I know, but I don’t know if I can do it. My womb might overwhelm me.
Ilona: does that mean that there is no womb clenching in Magic Strikes?
Casee: I’m assuming it’s a pre-orgasm squeeze.
Stephanie: But you can still have sex, so you belong.
Renee: Is there a doctor in the house?
This sounds like something out of “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” even your graphic looks like something out of that book. But in a romance novel, not so much.
THe only thing worse is the d*ck hitting the cervix. this is NOT SEXAY!
Ames: Ouch!
Dear Scooper,
No womb clenching – I can send you the file and you check for yourself 😛
Send send send. Have I told you lately that your great? 😉
Cramps for sure. I’m also with Ames on the hitting the cervix thing. OUCH!
*biting my tongue*
