A visual display resembling a book review or reading list titled 'My Current Read' with a pink book cover labeled 'Want' and a handwritten note showing a 10 out of 10 rating for a book called 'Want' by Gillian Anderson, surrounded by doodles of stars, hearts, and an open pink book, all on a black background with pink accents.

I´m currently reading “want” by Gillian Anderson which first caught my eye in the library due to its color - and because it was written by Gillian Anderson who has been on my list of celebrity crushes for years.

I´m only halfway through so far but already recommended it to my friend in our book club because I´m convinced it´s a great and groundbreaking book (and I´m also convinced you´ll find it as my favorite book listed in my December Favorites Post).

In her book, Gillian Anderson collects anonymous sexual fantasies from women all around the world, of all ages, sexual orientations, religion etc. She explores the question how do women feel about sex when they have the freedom to be totally anonymous?

For me personally, some chapters were really healing, reading about other women who have similar fantasies or have had similar experiences in general, and it makes me feel a little less alone. Of course I can´t relate to everything in the book, which also isn´t the point of it, but regardless, I also find it exciting to read about other women's fantasies. Since the book is real and not fiction, I think that's what caught my attention, also the chapters are also very short (1-3 pages on average), so I can read a little bit here and there, and not just when I have a lot of time which is great in a very busy month like December.
