The T Room

-Large target audience: Women-especially yoga moms-who love self-help, romance, and/or sexuality titles will find this book, which combines all three, irresistible.

-For readers who liked … : In its unabashed depiction of women’s sexuality, this novel recalls the guilty pleasure of Fifty Shades of Grey or The Hunted Series while at the same time addressing more complex issues of spirituality, female relationships, and longing like those found in The Lightness by Emily Temple or Milk Fed by Melissa Broder.

-Timeliness: At a time when women are standing up to patriarchal oppression with movements such as #metoo, this timely tale-both cautionary and inspiring-depicts the familiar pitfalls of women’s desire for male validation as explored in Kate Elizabeth Russell’s My Dark Vanessa, while also offering a path to female self-authority and empowerment.
