If you enjoy a very filthy, sex-filled but unsexy tale of self-destructive millennial ennui which is also hilarious and deeply London, I'd give this a shot. Some of the comments about everyone coming too easily made me laugh, as I can’t imagine enjoying erotic fiction where it takes six pages for the protagonist to have an orgasm.

Hotjar sets this cookie to know whether a user is included in the data sampling defined by the site's daily session limit. The main character is likeable because of how openly she displays her imperfections to the reader while desperately trying to conceal them from everyone else in the book. One of Violet’s new friends suggests that this isn’t an equal relationship, but she’s a plaything in a toxic relationship. So much of what is written spoke to me on a very deep level - the ideas about the shame that women feel around food, money and sex, the self-deprecation and feeling of being lost that characterised my early 20s. She also has a lot of sex scenes in her books, but if you think Jilly Cooper is erotica, you just haven’t read any erotica.

Publication dates are subject to change (although this is an extremely uncommon occurrence overall).

endlessly entertaining this is a shrewd commentary on ambition and young womanhood that also reads as a rollicking page-turner. Then I would have children, and Mark would be their father, and I'd repeat the process, holding my breath and waiting for everything to go wrong, crossing my fingers that exams were passed, curfews were observed, experiments with drugs and alcohol were kept to a minimum and that teen years were pregnancy-free. I was totally engrossed, and couldn't put it down, after struggling to concentrate on reading for the last few months, I was absolutely gripped. Just because Violet’s traits are not ones i’d identify with, doesn’t mean i dislike reading about it - and i’m sure we’re all familiar with this concept by now as it’s becoming more and more commonplace in recent releases.it is genuinely refreshing to read gritty, candid narratives about female sexuality, love, friendships, mental illness, abuse and loss. I raced through this funny, filthy and utterly compelling debut about female sexuality, ambition and vulnerability. Insatiable is a story about loneliness and trying to fit in, about our desire to be loved and included, how it’s easy to confuse being wanted with being used. Now, I have a lot of respect for Judi Dench, but christ on a bike, would she be your first thought for a comparator in this situation?
