I liked this third book in the series probably the most. It didn't feel as amateurish as the other two and seemed to have a bit more thought put into creating this story.
This book follows the Manhattan Call Girl Nancy to France, where she accompanies one of her oldest customers Milt. There are all sorts of complications on the way not being helped by her blonder than ever friend Alison.

I am very much not a reader of chick lit, but I can't resist when the book features sex workers and is written by a former sex worker who I have the utmost respect for.

When I read Tracy Quan's first book, Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl, I really didn't like it. I felt like the characters were all pretty unlikeable, and that she really played the characters up as stereotypes of high class call girls and activists.

Over the years, these characters have grown on me for exactly these reasons. My perception of these types has changed, and now I love this series of books entirely because the characters are unlikeable, steering with their own moral compasses, and totally hilarious.

This book was interesting to say the least. The main character is a call girl engaged to her Wall Street boyfriend. The book follows her trying to juggles her sex life and her upper class life. Nancy is strangely likeable but on the whole the book feels strange and is rather repetitive. That being said a good trashy read, however not enjoyable enough for me to want to read the sequels.

I only managed to read up to 170 pages of this book before I got totally an utterly bored. Whilst reading the book, I had to reread passages and chapters because it was too confusing. I don't really recommend this book.

Typical chick lit. Not my type. Non-believable characters or situations. Engaged but her man doesn't know she is a call girl. Why get engaged? Sorry I just cant relate to or understand this character.

~*~*~*~ RE-READ REVIEW ~*~*~*~

Delightfully trashy read I discovered in college when I was visiting England. I picked it up on a whim in a tube station bookshop and tore through it. Re-reading it about a decade later, it's still entertaining. My main critique of it is that the protagonist is inexplicably old fashioned in some things.

The book was great, and then it just ended. I felt like she was just ending it because she didn't have anything left to say. The wedding is what made zero sense.
