Loading... Diary of a Manhattan Call Girlby Tracy Quan
None. For most of this book I really enjoyed the story - however as it got near the 'end' the plot moved too fast and ended unclearly (as in there were plot holes because things moved so quickly). ( )Or, whore chick lit memoir? The pink girly cover of the book was deceiving. I thought it's more chick lit than an actual call girl's diary. It was quite entertaining and eye-opening to read. I found it too funny that they worry about being caught for tax fraud. The less entertaining things about prostitution, her years on the street and later escorting were carefully avoided to keep it light. I'd have liked to read about it, but it wouldn't have fit with the writing style, story line etc. At the same time I wouldn't want to read a "True Crime" kind of book about prostitution but more a fictionalised but more realistic account. But I have to remember not to read something like that on the subway because I find reading the juicier scenes on public transport embarrassing. It makes me squirm and check if someone's reading over my shoulder no reviews | add a review
