Ratings look different for everyone, so while we’ve tried to build a system that covers all varieties of steamy preferences, we highly recommend checking out our rating guide before adding to cart.

Our blind dates range from brand-new releases to pre-loved books - and yes, sometimes even special editions with sprayed edges, foiling, or other collectible enchantments. All candidates go through a quality screening.

At the bottom of our listings, you’ll spot a little code that tell you the condition of the book (because transparency is sexy):

♦ BN = Brand New ♦ LN = Like New, read once ♦ GC = Good Condition, not as crispy ♦ UC = Used Condition, might have cracked spine, light foxing, or other cosmetic quirks that don’t affect the readability.
