The Collected Whore Diaries by Tara Burns

kesnit's review

2.0

I thought this book would be really interesting - real life details of a sex worker. Instead, most of the book is accounts of what she did with her clients. Almost 2/3 of the book is tales of the various ways she beat her clients and had sex with them. The last 1/3 includes some of what I was looking for - how sex work interacted with her life. There were other characters, but they were almost entirely walk-on. When she does include part of her life outside sex work, there is almost no background to give any context.
I finished this book, but I almost wish I hadn't. It was just boring.
