How Was It for You?: Stories from a Sex Worker by Eve Smith
Did not finish book. Stopped at 38%.
I struggled with this book. I did switch to the audio version which I found slightly easier to take in. There is some interesting information and it covers important topics. It explains well why sex work needs to be decriminalised. Unfortunately, I ended up DNF'ing at 38%. I found the tone extremely angry and bitter. It's also packed with internalised misogyny. I couldn't understand how she could look down on other sex workers and she has a huge issue with women working in minimum wage and retail jobs. She is hugely judgemental about any other women she works with or comes into contact with and makes out she is better at everything than all of them. It's quite disjointed and the writing jumps around a lot.
