Rent Girl

Rent Girl

If you ever want to see a sex worker or currently see sex workers, you are not going to want to read this book. While the author/main character never feels degraded by her job, she hates both her job and her clients. She is also kind of mean.

At the beginning, I felt a lot of empathy for the MC. She had a traumatic event, was a young lesbian in a relationship with a domineering woman who seemed to care little about her while still craving the MC's affection. But then she got mean. She calls up a former client to make fun of his self-written songs among other things. I don't recall a nice thing she does for anyone as the story goes on (even the MC admits that whoring has made her mean and greedy). 

So, as I said in the beginning...don't read this book if you're considering seeing a sex worker in Vegas on your next vacation because this book will disabuse you of the notion that any sex worker might actually enjoy what they're doing. 

I did like it though. So...there's that.
