Product Description

Book Description
Wendy's toyboy adventures began at forty-two, when she was an
attractive, twice divorced mother of two. On a skiing holiday one New
Year's Eve, Wendy inadvertently found herself writhing naked underneath a
nineteen-year-old. That first drink from the fountain of youth proved so
intoxicating, she developed an unquenchable thirst, and for the next two
decades, she continued to have sex and relationships with much younger men.
As she puts it herself: "I deal in antiques, but I never sleep with
them." "The Toyboy Diaries" is Wendy's gift to herself for her
60th birthday. Think Helen Mirren rather than the Queen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good read but then............, 1 Sep 2008
By Rowena "Rowena" (Warwickshire, England) - See all my reviews
I thought this would be a laugh, a funny book about how it is once you pass the inevitable 40 mark. It was all that. Humorous, poignant and insightful about how a woman of a certain age thinks and behaves when engaging with men.

BUT BUT BUT.......Her 'honesty' borders on cruel and dismissive in some cases. If a man wrote such a book with such an attitude I doubt the world would laud him in anyway. Humor yes, mean-ness no.

No doubt the boys know who they are.... wouldn't it be fun to hear all from the other side!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a MUST READ! Unputdownable, funny and very sexy, 28 Jun 2007
Wendy Salisbury's odyssey is a fascinating memoir of how a woman of any age can grab herself some hot fun! This is no longer the preserve of men! It's an inspirational, honest, funny story which every woman (and man) should be able to relate to. Wendy is not afraid to tell it like it is - whether she's enrapt in a passionate encounter or has been stood up. Every aspect of a woman's social life is in there with a focus on toyboys, how to handle them and how much they can enhance your life! You go girl! Can't wait for the sequel!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for any single woman over 40!, 28 Jul 2007
By Anne Walker (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This wasn't the kind of book I would usually choose but something about the back-cover blurb appealed to me and from the first few pages when I started to laugh out loud, laughing with Wendy and definitely not at her, I absolutely loved it! She really tells it like it is and her clever, witty style was brilliantly entertaining. To my surprise I actually found it hard to put down and finished the book in record time. I recommend it to any woman over 40 who wants to know how to get her groove back or how to inject some fun into her life without getting involved. Looking forward to the next instalment!
