Book Club: Dark Romance!
Dark Romance Book Club: Bad Bishop by L.J. Shen
The Book Lounge, 631 Central Avenue
January 20th | 6:30–8:00 PM
Scandalous. Obsessive. Deliciously unholy. Join us for a night where desire is dangerous and love is anything but soft as The Book Lounge’s Dark Romance Book Club descends into Bad Bishop by L.J. Shen, a provocative tale of power, control, and temptation that refuses to behave.
This meeting is for readers who crave chaos, morally gray men, sharp tongues, and emotional damage served hot. Expect candid conversation, passionate opinions, and an atmosphere that leans fully into the dark side as we unpack control, vulnerability, and the pull of dangerous attraction. A glass of wine is included to keep the conversation flowing and just unhinged enough to make things interesting.
