Hey all,
So I finished the book, here’s a review I wrote a few minutes ago. It might give undecided people an idea of what to expect, before getting it.
The fourth book by Richard Greye takes a different turn compared to the previous ones. The first person narration deepens, as he provides us a more detailed story with Built. It deals with a person, Andrew, who has trouble finding his equilibrium in life, through his choices or just plain bad luck.
He then reaches a point in his life where he can throw caution to the wind and give in to his most secret desires, muscular women. But not unlike fitness models mind you, VERY muscular ones. I mean big. Following all the events in his life, Andrew finds himself exploring and understanding his desires, with ups and downs along the way. This path forges him an opportunity to literally build the mate of his dreams.
The book offers a detailed insider view about the feelings of this man, going through his quest for a muscular woman. It is very well detailed and gives the impression to take the place of Andrew. It is a mix between very descriptive phase, about the events of his life and his action toward muscular women, but as well about the psychological aspect and the sometimes funny situations such men find themselves in.
But unlike many stories or book we read today, Built offers a detailed point of view from the woman’s perspective. Indeed, the author’s book is supported by his wife Jayne, who brings a balance of feelings and the real point of view from the muscular women perspective. Another theme of the novel is the shift in their relationship as her power grows.
The story explains the path taken by Andrew, the advantages and disadvantages he has to deal with along the way. From looking for a strong dominant lady, to wondering how dominating the lady of his dreams will become. Albeit lovingly, he gets to have not any muscular woman, but the most muscular on earth, along with a domination streak which surprises her as well.
Excerpt from the book, if the author minds, please let me know I’ll remove it:
Her bunched up, massive glutes tied into a litany of muscles which a red dress tried in vain to cover. The picture was taken from behind, but the outer sweep of her fully developed quads were so enormous that they seemed to wrap around her legs and merge with densely packed hamstrings. Tanned, oiled, and striated, her muscles bulged and looked intensely powerful. Thickly detailed, veiny calves exploded out of her lower legs, cut up into a series of densely muscled ridges, running all the way up her legs. Next to it was a note from Lizzy. Too small!
“Holy shit, those legs are incredible.” I professed, hoping it would lead to a discussion about Lizzy’s seemingly monumental goals.
She wasn’t deterred from her mission. “Andrew.”
“Yah, I’m sorry. What ‘fun thing’ do you want?”
She grew quiet and looked at herself in her tiny mirror fiddling with her hair. With much hesitancy she almost whispered, “I’d like a mirror on the ceiling and the wall.”
I laughed then frowned, “Wait, you’re serious?”
“Yes,” she looked down as if embarrassed.
“Why?”
She hummed and hawed, “I put all this work in and I want to see what I look like.”
“You’re not getting vain about your body, are you?”
She reached over and grabbed my hand hard as I teased her. A quick flick of rage showed that my teasing wasn’t the right tact with her and she seemed caught off guard. My hand throbbed in pain under her powerful grip, but I didn’t let her know it hurt, intent on keeping my pride intact. Subconsciously, I began to fear that her demonstration of anger might be a delayed side effect of the serum. It also could have been that she didn’t know her strength or perhaps it involved her experiences with sexual assail and I had struck a nerve with the put down. My knees began to buckle under her grip and my arm began to shake. I’m not sure if it was from fear of her power or from the pain. There was no longer any doubt that she was stronger than I.
Each chapter brings further character and plot development, with surprises along the way. If you like well-constructed stories with personable characters and strong women, I highly recommend this novel.
