Is Harry on the Boat: Colin Butts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u00a0The rebellious read!<\/em><\/p>\n

Is Harry on the Boat<\/a><\/span> is a cult novel written by Ibiza legend Colin Butts and is based on his amusing diaries as a holiday rep in Ibiza. Published in 1997, the novel is focused around the main character Brad and his young hot rep mates with storylines involving partying, sex, dilemmas, and of course a love story. It\u2019s not for anyone looking for an innocent read as it\u2019s a little bit raunchy in places and definitely involves a lot of debauchery.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not the reading kind of person, the novel was actually turned in to a film in 2001 starring lots of familiar faces including; Danny Dyer, Will Mellor and Davinia Taylor which you can watch here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The White Island: Stephen Armstrong<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Impress your mates with cool facts about Ibiza\u2019s history<\/em><\/p>\n

This book<\/a><\/span> delves deep in to Ibiza\u2019s extraordinary past and reads like a history of hedonism with stories of invasions, migrations, artists, conmen, drop outs and love-ins.<\/p>\n

Read how the Carthaginians established a cult to their goddess of sex (Tanit) on the island in approx. 650 BC and how they named the island after Bez, their god of dance (not sure that has anything to do with the Happy Mondays though).<\/p>\n

And if you thought it was only in modern times the island was used for down time and partying, think again! Roman centurions in need of a bit of down time between campaigns would go to Ibiza to get their kicks.<\/p>\n

This well researched book is written by journalist and author Stephen Armstrong and will be a perfect read for anyone wanting to scratch under the surface of Ibiza\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
