Liked this book and it is written with good deal of humour.....

There is a lot of soulsearching in this book..about what the author wants from relationships...so there is a fairly serious question at stake for her.......

Not quite as full of humour as her other park but it's still abcsorbing despite that....

Tha author's frankness is admirable but still a wee bit puzzling.....

These larger-than-life people should stay larger-than-life, dammit. Don't they know that they have thousands of fans depending on them?

I loved reading about Cat in Sleeping Around: Secrets of a Sexual Adventuress . As she describes herself, part slut, part hopeless romantic. You just never knew what she was going to do next, and neither did she. Fall in love? Spur-of-the-moment threesome, described in glorious detail? Unexpectedly run out of money? Get married to solve her visa problem? Flashback to some zany, outrageous incident when she was a wild teen?

And now... she's signed up with Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous. Admittedly, we couldn't live like you have. It would turn a normal person into an emotional wreck within a few years. But the whole point is that you're not supposed to be a normal person. You're a superheroine, who's living in the fantasy world and sending us thrilling reports about what goes on there. Cat, have faith in yourself! I just know you can get your mojo back, and I look forward to hearing about it in your third book!

Great for fans of Sex and the City, Catherine is a sexier version of Samantha Jones (in the flesh too, trust me) and is a shining beacon for women all over the world. Wonderfully liberated attitude and consistanly sound relationship advice from the Independent columnist. It's really horny too, the sex scenes are just brilliant.

DID NOT FINISH.

I hoped this would be another Secret Diary of a Call Girl it really isn't. It just strikes me as complaining. Girl wants the world to bend to her wants and then complaining when it doesn't. Her own worse enemy but can't understand why everything with her life is crap.

I enjoyed reading this book,Catherine Townsend is such an incredible writer with an insane sense of humor! I was hooked from the start to the end. It's also a horny read,the sex scenes are just amaze'balls! Definitely looking forward to reading her other books especially Sleeping Around: Secrets of a Sexual Adventuress

Fun, if risky, memoir. Author allows women to feel equal in their sexuality to men but acknowledges social differences that exist regarding this and how this affects confidence in own desires and self-worth. Great read.

A horny version of Dolly Alderton. Light hearted and enjoyable, sex scenes were a bit much as suggested by the book cover…

Great, but not deserving of a five-star. I enjoyed reading it: what with the ups and downs of her life, her experiences, and the lessons she shared. I just felt like at some point at the end, the story became boring. Still, I liked the main character and the ending. She's relatable and quirky, so it's entertaining to read.
