About “Year of the What?”
Year of the WHAT? is a romantic comedy that follows heartbroken and lonely 25-year-old Dana, who is six months off her first break-up and living the single life in New York City. A virgin once removed, she’s insecure and on the hunt for the one.
Dana has only been with one man and hasn’t given herself a chance to explore her own curiosity. She feels ashamed of her desires, and keeps trying to squash them in order to be a ‘good girl’. Her roommate, Kelly, on the other hand, has none of Dana’s hang-ups.
Kelly is unabashedly promiscuous, with an off the charts IQ and a full ride to NYU. But Kelly can’t stand the monotony of school, so she drops out to become a dominatrix and pursue an alternative lifestyle where she makes ‘lawyer money’ working in a dungeon in Chelsea.
After months of searching in vain for Mr. Right, Kelly’s lust for life and insatiable quest for adventure finally rub off...Dana embarks on an outrageous adventure of sexual discovery where she finds her inner power and confidence, all while taking charge of her erotic exploration. Through her exploits Dana realizes she will never find what she is looking for, until she finds herself.

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jennifer Lieberman, Founder of Make Your Own Break, located in Toronto, ON, Canada.
The founder of Make Your Own Break, Jennifer Lieberman, is a visionary leader who has single-handedly taken her life from a never-ending chain of failures to perpetual success.
This is one of the best, most beautifully written, and heart wrenching books I’ve ever read.
Hi Jennifer, how do you think about risk?
I’m all about taking risks and truly believe ‘no risk no reward’. I was a competitive gymnast for over a decade growing up and in my training I was conditioned to take huge risks almost everyday when learning new skills. The tricks I dared to do a child, most people never dare to do in their lifetime. I’ve always been a daredevil, and adventurer and a little bit of a rebel so taking risks is just part of who I am.
Jen and I played email tag and finally sat down to record. We got on the call and it was clear that this might be a bit spotty – it happens! Yet we dove right in and she explained why popping into a handstand on the beach was a great opening.
After years of pounding the pavement and knocking on doors with no success in breaking into the entertainment industry, Jennifer decided to take matters into her own hands and created the solo show Year of the Slut. This show proved to be her break and the play went on to win the Audience Choice Award in New York City and is now the #1 Amazon Best Selling novel Year of the What?
What’s the last great book you read?
The last great book I read was “I’ll Take My Chances” by Gary Turner. It’s a historical fiction based on Gary’s family history and his Sioux heritage. It’s a riveting and well written tale of history, adventure and romance. I can’t wait to dive into parts 2 and 3. They’re already waiting on my bookshelf.
Reader Reviews
I was looking for a witty laugh, and I got it from Lieberman in Year of the What. I think everyone will recognize a little of themselves in this book. It’s laugh-out-loud funny, it’s courageous, it’s exhilarating. It’s all the things you wished you’d done and some of the things you wish you hadn’t. I can’t wait to see what Lieberman follows this up with.
This book is so incredibly sexy and smart! From the very start of this novel, I've been completely captivated by this beautiful, erotic, and heartfelt love story. As a huge fan of the author's poetry, stage and film work, I was thrilled to experience another form of her magic. I couldn't recommend this book enough and anticipate a television series or major motion picture Desirable read, much needed in the future!!! I'll be the first in line for my ticket.
This arousing novel celebrates feminine sexuality through one of the most original adventures of self-discovery written. The primary character – Dana – is surviving her first romantic breakup and the manner in which she not only survives but prospers and grows makes for one of the strongest Chick Lit novels to surface in quite a while. Jennifer simply writes very well, able to compose situations and characters that are so real they seem like yesterday’s chat sharing!
The book is a great read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it. It explores the fear and naiveté of a young woman, thinking she's about to experience her first intimate sexual experience. The author delves into first loves, lifestyles, lust, and anything else you can think of, when a young woman starts coming to grips with her sexuality.
“Love this hero’s journey! Jen Lieberman has this amazing gift of grabbing the reader from the very first line and mesmerizing us with these deliciously imperfect characters. “Year of the What” is so relatable , honest, raw and wonderfully titillating! This is such a refreshing book!”
