Between the Covers

Join co-moderators Sophia and Erin in our Online Book Discussion Group as we explore a range of monthly topics. Unlike most Book Groups, we will not all be reading the same title for discussion, in fact, we encourage you to bring what resource you find topically worthy of sharing. Resources include, and are not limited to, book titles, articles, podcasts, films/documentaries. Be prepared to briefly introduce your title/resource as we embark on discussion and engage in community. 

Time: 3rd Thursday from 7-8:30 pm, monthly

July Topic: Exploring BDSM
Sophia: Playing Well With Others:Your Field Guide to Discovering, Navigating and Exploring the Kink, Leather and BDSM Communities by Lee Harrington and Mollena Williams
Erin: BDSM 101 by Rev. Jen
