Books which helped to pervert me.

I was into BDSM long before I encountered this book, but I'll list it for those who may be interested in a book that seems to fly under the radar.

The Ties That Bind (Le Lien) by Vanessa Duriès.

It is the very personal story of a young woman who delves into hardcore submission

I read "The Story of O", a recommendation from the Library Sciences roommate.
I tried reading the De Sade books but man, whew too intense for me!

I found a book of my Dad's called How I Became an Expert On Sex. It was a humorous look at the authors sex life. The book is long gone and I would love to read it again , but I can't even find it on Google .

Beacon was created by Arnold E. Arahamson, publisher of Universal Publishing Company, which also issued such labels as Uni, Intimate, Royal Giant, Stallion and Fiesta, most of which were digest-sized books. The first Beacon title was She Got What She Wanted by Orrie Hitt in 1954, and within seven years it had become the largest publisher of mid-century erotica. Beacon changed its name to Softcover Library in the mid-1960s, keeping the lighthouse colophon, and operated from New York City until the early 1970s. In its first three years, Beacon published a title a month, but by 1961, the year Universal went public, they were publishing eight titles a month and had over 450 titles in print with combined book and magazine sales of over 13 million copies.

Some are on the Internet Archive.

I don’t consider myself perverted, but I love to read erotic short stories and novels. Cleis Press is a publisher I’ve admired for a long time. I used to buy their erotica in Barnes & Noble (the bookstore).

I'd catch some moms in that section of the bookstore when I'd go there to unwind after spending hours in front of computer monitors and/or the tv working on video games. They'd blush and walk away.
