a whole new outlook - By: Ms. E. A. Longyear, 07 Sep 2008 
I stumbled across this book on amazon as its not my usual read (may be now)
I found this book gripping & detailed, i felt i lived many moments with Suzanne, although her life may appear crazy to some she is a woman who knows what she likes & knows how to get it!!!
Not a book for the faint hearted can be very graphic & eroticin places but a great insight for anyone with an open mind to sex.
don't spend the money - By: M. thompson, 20 Mar 2008 
If I could give this a rating it would be minus 10. This has to be the worst book I have ever spent money on. I thought I would get it due to the comments made by others but if you have ever beenin a relationship or had good sex you will find this book as dull as dishwater.
It was not funny, naughty or anything she does not describe her experiencesin depth so all you really get from the book is `I went to a bar, met a man, didn't really like him that much, I grab a condom & we have sex!' . She is self assured & knows what she wants & a lot of time that is bad sex! She feels she owes it to a men to give them what they want even if all they have done is brought a coffee, dinner, she will still put out even when she doesn't really fancy the guy - not a very strong women I found this extremely annoying about her. She is a sex addict & a very boring one at that.
This is such a DULL BOOK I cannot stress that enough, I threw minein the bin after half way not even the charity shop deserves rubbish like this culturing up its shelves.
Hilarious read - but whats with the drink driving? - By: Donna Mcmanus, 11 Mar 2008 
I had to write a review on this book. It goes without saying anyone even slightly prudish should not read this. That much is obvious! I am not sure why people have given it only one star for not being erotic enough, what did they expect with a `chick lit' cover like this? I personally did not find it erotic at all - just laugh out loud funny, & I mean thatin a good way. Suzanne knows what she wants & she goes out & gets it. I read this book so quickly as it was well written & kept me reading to find out what happened next.
A few problems I have with it (and maybe her if I am honest). Warning!! I might spoil the `plot' for people with the below comments. Number 1) what is with the drink driving? Seriously?? The amount of times she says she isin Soho House drinking 4 martinis & then getsin her car. What is up with that? 2) Some of the guys she describes seem very unattractive, ie: she describes Daniel as overweight with some missing teeth - yuk! She seems to have sex with most people even if she doesn't fancy them that much. 3) Her poor kids - the amount of random men they see passing through is not good. She seems to introduce all these men to her kids very quickly. Is having an alcoholic, drug addict living with you really good for your kids? Flying your kids to New York & have them sleepin the spare room while you have sex? Movingin a guy who permanently wears cycling shorts & then changing all the locks when she finds out he is seeing someone else? Taking your kids on holiday with a guy you've been seeing for 5 minutes? I am all for her getting lots of sex but I don't think its something her sons should know about.
Having said this I still thought it was a great book & well worth reading. Hilarious & honest.
Raw and honest sexuality - By: Jerry, 30 Jul 2007 Suzanne's book is refreshingly raw & honest. Although many might find her raw & open sexuality disconcerting, her frank honesty makes the book highly believable & enjoyable, providing a unique insight to how far women have comein societyin the last few decades. Welcome to the freedom of womenin the 21st century!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book - By: Tom Davis, 24 Jul 2007 I found this book to be a wonderfully current view of sexualityin a growing segment of the populationin the 21st century. Having tried & failed at monogamy, often multiple times (serial monogamy), many of thosein their 30's, 40's & 50's have come to the same conclusion... Monogamy is not the best solution for everyone. Many recent books have covered this topic from a number of different viewpoints. Suzanne's book is an excellent contribution from the female perspective. A male viewpoint of the swinging community can be foundin "Swinging: Shared Pleasures Between the Covers" (USA). Female viewpoints can also be foundin "Doin One For the Team" & "Polyamory: The New Love Without Limits". I highly recommend "The Butcher, the Baker, The Candlestick Maker" along with the other books to get several current views into the current world of non-monogamy.
