WOW keep your significant other close by

What a book you will need help cooling down. This book has it all and it is not smutty (girl/girl;group;threesome;boy/girl).I have re-read this several times and each time it gets better.The only down fall to me was the control freak Katherine meets in the library and several other times. Katherine is in charge and knows what she wants throughout the book except with this guy. Seemed kinda wishy-washy. I would recommend this book to anyone

These girls have more than their noses in the books ....

Ah yes Cambridge and to be surrounded by what polite society would call 'sexually active' members of that venerable institution .... Catherin the slightly older writer looking for a quiet spot to write a roman historical book learns that maybe she his a lot more sexual than she might wish to admit to herself, and Maggie, the young student that gives the term licentious slut a whole new meanu=ng, finds out that maybe theres more to life and love than sex .... The two girls learn from each other, and, in the process, of course, enjoy each other.I liked this book ... it is well written with some very very equisite and salacious sexual escapades that make it ablsolutely yummie ....

These girls do rock and then some .....

If you ever wondered what the term 'sexually active' means today then BUY this book ... The book takes place in the university of Cambridge in the UK, and 30'ish Catherin is an aspiring classic novelist and is trying to write a book about some of the more carnal delights of the Roman Empire. She moves into a flat and her neighbour, Maggie, is one down and out young, blonde, nympho that treats sex and men like a delicious snack. It's like corn chips, once you eat one then you cant stop till you finish the whole bag. The book then of course deals with the sexual escapades of the two women in their search for the perfect man. And what a seach it is .... absolutely wonderful and well written .....

both well-written and very erotic

In this book we meet Catherine, a mid-30s aspiring novelist who goes to Cambridge University for a few months to work on a translation of the Latin poet Catullus as well as a novel about him. She finds herself living next door to Meg, a free-spirited nymphomaniac who introduces Catherine to a whole new world of sexual adventures. Each of these women is an engaging and believable character who learns some suprising things about herself by the end of the book. There are a lot of very hot scenes, while at the same time there is a real story here. This book isn't a dark and pretentiously literary novel the way some Black Lace books are, but rather an enjoyable read with some attractive characters.
