Status: offline 		I am an avid reader and very much enjoy reading books that have to with the BDSM lifestyle either fiction or non-fiction. I have read the Beauty Series (which I didn't particularly like but that's another post), the Story of O, and Different Loving and a lot of other things. Can anyone recommend some really good reading material in either fiction or non-fiction?

One of my favourite BDSM authors is Richard Alexander. He writes stories online and has a series of "books" online which can be found here ... http://fetish.pornparks.com/boundstories/alexanderstories.html . He has a great imagination. i've been following the "Monica" series for a few years now, he writes a few more chapters each month. The books follow a group of Dommes who all live in the same house .. and the handyman who lives with them and is learning about BDSM (the hard way!)

It's a good read :)

cheers
mira

Status: offline 		Thank you Bob for the recommendation but on this subject we are at a loss indeed living out where we are some would even thing Mills and Boon would be to suggestive but may be in the bigger cities even though it may sound strange the public libraries would have books on BDSM or even some of the adult stores.
Sorry we could not be of further help with any addresses.
The Story of O is about all for us as well.

I also loved Different Loving, there's also slavecraft, Miss Abernathy's Consice Slave Training Manuel,The Ethicle Slut, Any book by Jay Weissman, and any book about tantric sex have been some of my favorites. I also have been looking at the human anatomy books from the library since I became kinky. I'm learning where my nerves, veins, and organs are to help me play safely.

slavejali, you ask

I say on the lovely internet of course. Even big E-warehouses like Amazon.com sell most of them.

Happy reading to all,
sub suzanne

Status: offline 		I would, of course, recommend my own books, you can get the latest "Eroscapes" via Amazon.com or KinkyBooks.com.

I've reviewed about 75% of the books on KinkyBooks.com (I'm the official book reviewer there) but they are revamping their cite and I don't think my reviews are back up yet or I'd say "check those out".

I really like Laura Antoniou's "Marketplace" series.

John Preston and Larry Townsend are "classic" gay leather authors.

I recommend Greenery Press, Cleis Press, Circlet Press, and Daedalus Press in general.

I find books written by people who actually have BDSM or SM or whatever they wish to call it to be more interesting and more "real" feeling.
