Until recently, Julia hadn’t had sex in three years.

But now:
• a one-night stand is accusing her of breaking his penis;

• a sexually confident lesbian is making eyes at her over confrontational modern art;

• and she’s wondering whether trimming her pubes makes her a bad feminist.

Julia’s about to learn that she’s been looking for love – and satisfaction – in all the wrong places…

Frank, filthy and very, very funny, In at the Deep End is a brilliant debut from a major new talent.

I have to admit, I stepped outside my comfort zone with this one. But, that's a good thing! I love learning about new to me authors, and getting to know new writing styles and characters. Kate Davies definitely brought me all of that and more! She knows what to give readers to keep them hooked on the story, from start to finish.

Julia's character was perfectly full of flaws, and watching her "come out" and gain a girlfriend, was definitely a new experience for me. I loved watching her and following her story. I felt, often times, like I was her during the story, falling for a woman and experiencing new things in life.

I will say that if you are looking for a quick, light, wholesome read, this is not for you. But, if you want a 4 star worthy book that is filled with some angsty,funny moments, some great characters and lots of graphically detailed scenes, then grab this book up by this talented author!
