Love is in the air … along with a hefty dose of planning stress for some of us! If you’re still fretting over how to pamper the king or queen of your heart this Valentine’s Day, we’ve got your back.

An Evening of Poetic Passion with Ethos Books
If your feelings for that special someone are beyond words, let our local poets do the charming. Wordsmiths Alfian Sa’at, Marylyn Tan, and Pooja Nansi are dishing us up some V-Day steam and spice, with a reading of their favourite poetry, erotica, and sexts – some personally penned by the poets themselves. But if you’d rather enjoy a sensuous evening in, pick up your own selection of sultry verse and prose with Ethos Books’ Valentine’s Day discounts. From long-distance writing affairs to tales of longing and loss, these books are best read with candlelight and company.
Please Text Me Back: A Filthy Valentine’s Day Reading is happening on 14 February 2020 from 8pm, at The Projector Singapore, #05-00 Golden Mile Tower, 6001 Beach Road, Singapore 199589. Ethos Books‘ Valentine’s Day Special discounts run from 14 January to 14 February 2020.
