Step into a space where curiosity, intellect, and a touch of the taboo come together.
This kinky book club meets once a month for a 90-minute session designed to spark thoughtful, open-minded conversation.
Whether you’ve read the book cover to cover or are coming in fresh, you’re welcome—reading is a bonus, not a requirement.
Each gathering includes curated excerpts from the selected book, with time set aside to read, reflect, and formulate your own questions. From there, the group dives into discussion, focusing on themes, big ideas, and the intersections of sexuality, power, identity, and culture. Selections alternate between fiction and non-fiction, offering a dynamic mix of storytelling and critical exploration.
This is a participant-driven space where curiosity is encouraged and diverse perspectives are valued. Book suggestions are always welcome, helping shape a reading list that reflects the interests of the community.
This month, we’ll be discussing Warhound Volume 1 by Kallidora Rho. “Sartha Thrace, ace mech pilot, is always so confused. She's a rebel, so why is she fighting on the wrong side? She's a free woman, so why is she wearing a muzzle? She's a hero, so why do her comrades treat her like a rabid dog? Sartha Thrace is so fortunate that her beloved Handler is always there to help her understand…” Warhound is a collection of stories that center on trans, lesbian erotic horror and mechsploitation.
For those who want to keep the conversation going, a dedicated Discord channel is available to Ember Society members.
All sessions are facilitated by an Ember Society host, ensuring a respectful, engaging, and thoughtfully guided experience.
