O

I am amazed with America's fascination with 50 Shades of Grey.  This book has created spark in bedrooms across the nation. Every woman wants a Christian Grey.....  (I am sure some women want a break from Christian Grey too once in awhile- hehehe*  lol)

Regardless, I am not impressed with this series.  It is a good intro to the BDSM world for the novice but this type of literature has been around forever.  Quite frankly, this book is lacking. . . . .  Read an old school novel.

Three BDSM classics are

Justine by Marquis de Sade 1791
Venus in Furs  Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch  1870
Look at the authors names. Meet SADISM & Masochism............
Underground classic : The Story of O? published in 1954..... 

The how to manual that has a lot of great info......
Screw the Roses and Send me the Thorns 
"There's clear explanations and detailed tutorials for beginners, as general as "safe, sane, and consensual" and as specific as "you will be swinging the whip with your arm pivoting at the shoulder." There's also solid advice, safety measures, steamy suggestions, plenty of black-and-white photographs, useful and humorous drawings, an extensive glossary, and over 900 entries of S/M clothing and equipment vendors, publications, computer bulletin boards, and organizations worldwide. As sadomasochism is a practice that's still taboo for many people, the chapter on finding partners and sharing your fantasies with existing partners can be invaluable.
