Although we are talking about a topic that may shock some, and normalize others, the truth is that The author knows perfectly well the limit between the informative and the entertaining.. Without falling into making novels that are too informative and heavy to read, nor with foul language or language that could border on pornographic in the most risque scenes.
His pen is quite easy to understand, empathetic and with language adapted to readers, so that it is not difficult to follow. In fact, despite using technical terminology in some novels, it is explained so well that it is not necessary to stop and think about what the author wants to say in certain parts.
What books has Noemà Casquet written?
In total, Noemà Casquet has published six novels and one non-fiction book. Considering that his first book was published in 2019, having seven books in a four-year period is pretty good (especially since many writers only publish one a year, two if it's a good year). All of them have been very well received, so much so that she is now an internationally recognized author herself.
Here we talk briefly about each of them.
Bad woman
Published in 2019, it was with which she made her role as a writer known. To date it has ten editions.
In it, the only non-fiction one, it analyzes how people label themselves in gender identity. That's why, tries to break taboos and stop pigeonholing. To do this, it talks about sexual identity, menstrual cycle, masturbation, feminism and, of course, sexuality, among other things.
Bitches
This book, as well as the second and third, Malas and Libres respectively, were what really made Noemà Casquet widely known.
The trilogy introduced us to Alice, and her friends Diana and Emily. At first they don't know each other, but they meet in the bathroom of a joint where they have gone. There, between drinks, they decide to create the "Club de las Zorras" to be able to fulfill the sexual fantasies they have and that they have never dared.
In fact, in 2023 the series will be released by Atresmedia.
cuerpos
A year after the trilogy of novels that catapulted her to fame came out, she returned to the fray, in this case with a bilogy: Bodies, and Souls.
The two books were related to identity and desire, but they did so using a story where eroticism, the depth of what is spoken and the passion were the author's hallmarks.
These novels are the only ones that, in the words of Noemà Casquet, "have a lot of me, of the relationship that I have had throughout my life with men."
Ecstasy
Finally, in 2023 (yes, 2022 apparently she did not publish any books), she released her latest novel, Ecstasy, which tells the story of Amisha, a woman who, when she has an orgasm, is able to see the future.
Thus, The plot focuses on ancestral sexuality and the practices carried out by ancient civilizations related to sex.
What are your best books?
You now know more about Noemà Casquet. And also all the books he has written (for now there is no evidence that he is writing a new book, or is going to publish another). But, if you've never read anything by her before, you're probably wondering which ones you should start with.
Maybe the last one? First?
Our recommendation is that you do it for the trilogy that made it famous: Sluts, Bad and Free. The three books offer a vision of sex, of the prejudices and restraints that many impose on their sexuality to enjoy and feel free.
After this, you could opt for Bodies and Souls, since it reveals, between the lines, some ways of being of the author herself, and this way you can get to know her more in depth.
Finally, his first and last book to date would be his last, since they are more informative, although the last one is like that but using the power of stories to captivate the reader and teach them about sexual anthropology without boring or feeling uncomfortable with the topic.
