This book is great for someone who is just getting introduced to a D/S relationship, and wants to know the basics of how a relationship works and the needs of the bottom. Read more
The Mistress Manual is one of the best books on Female Domination out there. Whether you have an interest in dominating your partner or whether he's expressed an interest, this book includes everything you need to get from clueless to knowledgeable Dominant. Read more
While the Mistress Manual may not make a Domme out of a submissive overnight, it offers a clear, thorough look at the mental and physical mechanisms of Domestic Dominance. Though dominance runs opposite to my natural predilection, after finishing this book I found myself looking forward to acting out a light scene. Recommended for women wondering how to dominate their submissive partner who has expressed an interest, or for a submissive partner to gift to his Domme-to-be. Read more
Oh yes, that one right there. No, over a little. Ya, there. When did you get that? But seriously though, if you've ever had the voyeur/exhibitionist fetish, this book is definitely well worth the money. If you want more same sex stories, you'll have to look elsewhere, but all these stories are pretty awesome. Read more
A beautiful collection of voyeuristic fantasies for those nights when the shades are drawn (but not too tight), the lights are low (but it's not too dark), and your imagination knows no bounds. Read more
Please Sir is an erotica book intended to arouse those who enjoy female submission. While I don't tend to enjoy it, it was still a pleasurable read that offered a look into the submissive mindset. Read more
Please Sir is a diverse collection of erotic tales that while holding some hot stories, may leave readers lukewarm and in need of more lurid details. Read more
An excellent plethora of knowledge between the pages, informative and queer friendly. Make your way through the pages and discover aspects of BDSM that will catch your eye, whether you're just beginning or an experienced guru yourself. Janet and Dossie are lighthearted, entertaining and best of all, professionals that educate in the most non judgmental fashion while introducing play concepts and fantasies that are wilder than your imagination! Read more
This well written book is one of the first “Overground Books” to discuss, in depth, the D/S, M/s, BDSM Play with no judgment. It defines commonly used terms and phrases used in Sensation and Rough Play and even goes into Sex Magic and introduces some Tantric Principles. It is not the end all or be all of this Lifestyle, but is a good introduction or useful as an “explanation” for those who misunderstand the reasons some choose this as part or all of their lives. Read more
This book probably turned more people onto BDSM than any other single work. Not for the squeamish, but if you even suspect you are an adventurous lover, you need to read O. Read more
The Story of O, or Histoire d'O, is a book about a woman's transformation into a submissive young slave. It was written by a French writer who wrote it for fairly odd reasons, which makes it understandable why it's such a horrid read. The book itself was so badly written that it truly made me feel sorry once I got to the end that I had wasted my time reading it. It was a frustration to read, and it isn't a good portrayal of BDSM, or any other, relationships. Read more
Pleasure Bound is a collection of erotic stories that focus around the theme of bondage. Although the stories each offer something different, they are catered to heterosexuals. I found this collection to be a very good read and should be a hit among those interested in this type of sexual fun. Read more
If there's one thing this book can do is give you a plethora of ideas for a kinky, fun night with a partner. These stories are based on real life encounters which makes them all the more interesting to read. The different scenarios are bound to keep you reading and wanting more. Read more
An exciting sex slave story based on the story sleeping beauty. This book has something to offer for everyone since it touches many different things such as same sex intercourse, bdsm, and anything you can think of. Read more
Book two of the Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice is nothing to bat an eye at. Part of it will bore you sleep, but then you'll wake your ass up when there's cats suckling clits. For a second there we do find some character depth, but not with Beauty. If you've read book one and just can't help but read this one thinking it gets better, it really doesn't, and you'll feel bad. Just saying. Read more
G Is For Games
– A book of erotic stories published by Cleis Press and edited by Alison Tyler, from light-hearted party games to devilishly simple competitions, here are stories for readers who love to play.
I definitely recommend this one as a collection of short, succinct stories you can enjoy one at a time, or in bed in one sitting. None of them are long enough to make you restless, nor too short to dissatisfy. The variety in situations you'll find each of the characters in is compelling and awfully sexy. Pick this one up to be seduced by the thrill of the action and the uncertainty of the human psychological need to win. Read more
Sizing up your opponent, planning your moves, playing to win---that's the name of the game in G is for Games. Edited by Alison Tyler, this erotica anthology is written just for people who thrill to competition---people who live for the pleasure of the chase. There are plenty of hot stories, focusing on the mental and physical aspects of the game we all love to play. While not every story was a home run for me, with such a great variety included, every reader will walk away a winner. Read more
Please Ma'am focuses on men being dominated and loving every second of it, whether they choose to admit it or not. Inside this book you'll find some great stories, all well written, and at the very least get yourself some ideas if you wanted to dominate your man and make him love every second of it. Read more
I'm giving this book a 3 because I'm fairly ambivalent about the book. I didn't like it that much, but the writing was good. There's nothing WRONG with the book, it was simply not a turn-on. Read more
If you're interested in BDSM, Carrie's Story, with its well-drawn and intelligent characters and depictions and images of slavery and pleasure, is sure to be a delight to read. Carrie takes a journey to explore and become the slave she can be, and you'll find yourself lost in her world until the very end. Read more
Whether you're just starting out exploring kinky fantasies or you're looking for another kinky book to sate your desires, you'll enjoy Carrie's Story. But if you're looking to explore BDSM on a practical level, Molly Weatherfield is not the author you want to turn to for advice. Read more
The Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage encompasses a lot in a very clear, easy to understand manner. It's very basic and will undoubtedly appeal to the beginner rope enthusiast and be a bit too simple for the experienced. Terrific job covering all the fundamentals from the top and the bottom point of view without going too deep or leaving you feeling like you missed something. A GREAT beginner book! Read more
Beginners will enjoy Mindori's first two sections of the book, which include safety, rope care/maintenance and other important aspects that partners will enjoy reading. Be warned, however, positions in the book are not meant for the faint-of-heart! My partner and I are fairly inflexible and had difficulty bending our bodies into the pictured positions. Overall, this book is highly informative - not to mention that the pictures are gorgeous! Read more
This series of books by Anne Rice was attention grasping and entertaining for me to read. I loved all three books and kind of wish there were more. Alas, all good things must come to an end. Read more
This wraps up Beauty's half assed saga. If you somehow got trapped into thinking the first two books would lead into something decent to end with, you're in for the saddest shock of your life. If you do pick up this series, try not to give it too much energy or else you WILL be let down. Read more
If you're looking to learn more about cock and ball torture and perhaps try a few scenes with a willing partner, this is a wonderful book to start with. It vividly outlines everything, from the male anatomy, to safety, down to how to actually execute some CBT scenes. At only 19.99 this book is a STEAL. Read more
"Family Jewels" give a good overview of CBT and other male genital forms of play, but it is not the end-all book to dive into being able to do this. It is, however, one of the best guides out there even though I would still definitely recommend finding a real-life person to learn from. Read more
Yes, Sir is a fabulously sexy, hot read that will have you playing with yourself when you're finished.. or hell, maybe even before you can finish reading! So if you're BDSM inclined or just want something different to read, this book is definitely for you. Read more
All in all, I'd recommend this book for someone who's just edging into erotica and who isn't particularly wild with fetishes. Someone who's into traditional male-on-female domination will thoroughly enjoy this book, but if you're looking for a wide range of fetishes you should look elsewhere. Good 'fap' material, not the best for the educated and experienced reader. Read more
"Slave To Love" is a sexy anthology of lots of erotic restraint, dominance and submission, impact play, and other kinky elements. The stories are a bit long to read aloud and keep your interest, but for solo pleasure, this is an amazing collection. Read more
When "Slave to Love" appeared in my mailbox I was stoked. This was right in time for a road trip; a long weekend starting with a long drive and a book of erotica. My kind of way to make the miles pass. Read more
The erotica contained in He's on Top kept me fascinated from the beginning to the end. It was obviously about male dominance over women, but more importantly it was loving. The women were actually lucky to be under the control of such men and I would definitely recommend this book for anyone shy of trying domination for the first time. You know, just in case you might think it would be hard to include love in fetishes. Read more
I hoped this would be a collection accessible to those not into BDSM (i.e. me!) but I found myself unaroused by most of the content. There are a few gems nestled within, but I don't know if I can justify to others shelling out the cash when I dislike so many of the stories. Read more
Best Fetish Erotica, presented as a Sexis Book Club book for April, is a collection of short stories that present common and uncommon fetishes in interesting and often erotic ways. The stories are diverse and often arousing, and present unique looks at the variety of things that get people off. Read more
Overall, I will give it 4 stars. I think it is more of a 3.5 star book, but I cannot give it a 3 and deduct 2 full stars. While what I was expecting in the book wasn't there, the book was well written and took me no time at all to read. Enjoyable, but not prefect. Read more
If reading about women being in charge is something that turns you on, then you should definitely take a look at She's On Top. The stories run the gambit from professional dominatrix to women who just know what they want from their partner. There are a few stories for the kinksters out there, but there's also some more "vanilla" ones as well. Read more
I would not recommend this book except to those already mentioned above. It was for the most part bland and boring and wish I had not bought it. Read more
Overall, I was really surprised by this book. I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought. There was a variety of outfits; from tape, to paint, to latex panties and catsuits. Hetero, homo, threesomes and orgy's, they were all represented. Some of the stories I could even imagine doing, so it might not all be fantasy. Read more
