It’s really really informative. I would almost say it’s too much information for such a small book. You have to pay attention at all times. There’s so much to know and it’s an excellent book. I love that it is a book about sex work written by sex workers. I learned so much. I definitely would recommend to anyone curious about worldwide sex work. I really appreciated the different government perspectives as well as their perspectives and what they think is going right and what they’re getting wrong.
