My Interests


Presenting an arousing assortment of titillating titles. New and unusual books for your perusal & approval. A veritable feast for the eyes! Abounding knowledge in every nook!(particularly, though not exclusively at our "sex" table*) Meet fascinating people (again, at our "sex" table.*) Impress others!(not at our "sex" table*) Kill time! Something for everyone & perhaps for YOU as well!
*
The "sex" table is for in-store guests only, and unfortunately cannot be reproduced on this site. No "physical sex" takes place upon the "sex" table at any time, ever, (though many a filthy thought will fly)and in no way does the purchase of anything upon this table guarantee sex and/or the making of, at any given point in time, in the near or distant future. It is to be used as a tool for concept and instruction only. -mgmnt
The following is an example of what awaits you at our stores, or visit us online.

Please note this woman is no longer available at any of our locations. (May this one be the keeper, Adelaide)

I'd like to meet:
