"This is the first of the 'stripper books' I've read that takes the reader into the grind of the daily existence of a worker in the sex industry. There are no pretensions on Lewis's part. She's in it to make money, and she lays her mercenary nature out there for the reader. To her, each customer is simply a bag of money to be shaken loose of as much of its lucre as possible. The writing is funny and charming. Lewis enjoys what she does, even if there are bad days, and it shows. "

"As a fellow ex-sex worker and aspiring writer, I am always interested in the perspective of other women in the adult entertainment industry. The author's perspective definitely reminded me of some of the women I have worked with as a pro domme -- punked out girls who first learn how to be femme when they realize it can earn them some cash, but who really have no passion or natural inclination for the work. She describes some pretty raunchy, degrading situations she gets herself into, seeming to not have any respect for her clients or herself as she performs acts that are completely unerotic and even disturbing to her. It's an us versus them approach that has very little sympathy or understanding for the men. She even describes picking clients pockets while lapdancing them! In my opinion, you get back what you dish out. If you expect sex work to be disgusting, despicable work then it will be. Definitely not my experience with it. But we each have our own story. This one was like rubbernecking a car wreck -- unpleasant but hard to turn away from. "

""Indecent" is scathing about the customers. Another book - Naked in Haiti: A sexy morality tale about tourists, prostitutes & politicians - is fiction about sex tourism. It is narrated from the customer's perspective, and while it might be a bit more generous, it still casts the customers as a sad lot. The girls, on the other hand, come out looking just fine - as girls usually do.

Readers of "Indecent" might enjoy this novel about prostitution. Naked in Haiti: A sexy morality tale about tourists, prostitutes & politicians is good, sexy fun, though with a moral punch. Check it out."

"I enjoyed this book quite a bit. While there are many unanswered questions (aren't there always in biographical books?) this book does a remarkable job of laying it on the line and being a good story. No fancy whistles or hidden morality lessons (except for don't be a pig if you're going to see a working girl), just an entertaining and almost voyeuristic read."

"Indecent: How I Make It and Fake It as a Girl for Hire
I somehow stumbled upon this book by linking from book to book on Amazon. After reading about both the book and the author, I realized that I had to have it. I literally drove all over the city until I finally located it at a bookstore. I immediately took it home and dived right in.

Yes, this book is sometimes crass and at times I let out little yelps of disgust over some things I read (the glass peep show booth "cleaning") but in all honestly thats what kept me turning the pages. You can completely relate to this woman and what she goes through - its all very real and very believable. The only downfall is that it wasn't long enough and that it ended at all! I could have kept on and on reading her tales of sex work and never gotten bored. I have since started reading her LiveJournal.

If you are easily offended I suggest you skip this title - but if you have an open mind and are curious about the life of a real sex worker this book is definately for you!"
