The List by Joanna Bolouri

Phoebe Henderson may be single but she sure doesn't feel fabulous. It's been a year since she found her boyfriend Alex in bed with another woman, and multiple cases of wine and extensive relationship analysis with best friend Lucy have done nothing to help. Faced with a new year but no new love, Phoebe concocts a different kind of resolution.
The List: ten things she's always wanted to do in bed but has never had the chance (or the courage!) to try. A bucket list for between the sheets. One year of pleasure, no strings attached.
Simple, right?
Factor in meddlesome colleagues, friends with benefits, getting frisky al fresco and maybe, possibly, true love and Phoebe's got her work cut out for her.

Review by Nicole


What a brilliant, laugh out loud, funny, naughty, nice, hysterical read! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute and found it very hard to put it down!

Phoebe is recovering from a nasty split and is fed up with her boring single life and lack of loving. New year - new Phoebe! Deciding to pass on the usual new years resolutions she sets herself a list of 10 things she has always wanted to do in 'the bedroom' - a year of naughty pleasures :-) As the year progresses and Phoebe's list starts to get ticked off...things begin to change.........

I have to say this is one of the best books i have read in a while. Everybody loves a bit of naughtiness but mixed up with a good storyline and lots of humour this book has it to a T. My only criticism would be the ending - i think it seemed rushed and disappointing compared to the rest of the book but on the other hand i would very much a sequel to see how Phoebe is!

I rate this book 9.5/10 - a tasty Novel Cafe Cupcake.
