MY REVIEW
Top marks to the author Ana Cruz for writing an unputdownable novel. Today I’m giving this page-turning book a real shout out. For me this is the best story I’ve ever read about an out spoken sex therapist.
I really enjoyed this story of Ana, having a job in a library, its job, that I would love to do.
I loved how this book is set out really well, with the diary set in bold black with the style of it being hand written.
28 year old, Ana Wolf, works in a public library in Lichtenberg, Berlin. She likes art history, and can be found reading a novel, from the one of the greatest authors ever Dan Brown.
Librarian, Ana stumbles upon a hand written diary, from a waste bin that appeared to have been knocked over, spilling the content out.
The diary has been written by Gabriella, a sex therapist. Gabriella Meyer, goes into great detail in her diary with women and men that she has helped with their sex problems, giving them lots of advice. Gabriella, is quiet open in her diary writing about her own sexual encounters with her husband.
Wow I became addicted reading to Gabriella Meyer’s diary along with Ana being under a spell reading Gabriella’s diary.
For Ana, The best thing about Gabriella’s diary, is that it taught her things about sex that she never knew before.
Catalog of Desire and Disappearance, is full of passion and self discovery that will leave readers breathless.
I’m looking forward to reading the next book by author Ana Cruz.
I would like to thank literallypr for send me a copy of this unputdownable book and for inviting me to take part in the blog tour.
