The Sex Lives of Cannibals: Adrift in the Equatorial Pacific by J. Maarten Troost. “This is a light and funny read. I loved this hilarious account of Troost's experiences living on the tiny Tarawa atoll in the Pacific island nation of Kiribati with his (then) girlfriend who was sent there for a two year assignment by an NGO. What sounded like paradise to the desperate-for-adventure couple sitting in Washington, D.C. most decidedly turns out not to be. It is well written, laugh-out-loud funny, full of fabulous colorful characters and incredibly bizarre experiences that you couldn't possibly make up if you tried. A great read.
