Description

'Extremely funny, touching and wonderfully refreshing on women and sexual desire' Marian Keyes 'You will be intoxicated by this witty and honest exploration of female desire' Elle 'As filthy as it is funny, you won't be able to put it down' Dolly Alderton 'Insatiable is a story about loneliness and trying to fit in, about our desire to be loved and included, how it's easy to confuse being wanted with being used. It'll draw people in with the shagging, but people will stay because they're rooting for Violet.'

It is a story about being unable to tell whether you are running towards your future or simply running away from your past. The result is at once tender and sad, funny and hopeful. * 'This novel shines with dark humour, sharp intelligence, sizzling sex scenes, and a piercing portrayal of loneliness. Not even the most insatiable reader could ask for more.' Katherine Heiny 'Filthy, funny, and raw, Insatiable is utterly addictive' Louise O'Neill 'Come for the absolute filth and stay for the empathetic and sensitive way that Daisy Buchanan writes about all the chaos and conflict of being a young woman in a hard-edged, hard-faced world.' Red 'A piercing insight into the unreal demands modern women place on themselves and told with real humour and energy, we love this book so much' Stylist 'A raucous unravelling of female desire and bodily pleasures, in all their ma
