A review by deadnberried
Rent Girl by Michelle Tea

2.0

This was not at all what I thought it was going to be. I was hoping for a little more reflection, but it was a fairly sparse memoir. I also felt the ending was abrupt, and left much to be desired in terms of the character development you hope to see at the end of a book--lessons learned, wisdom gained, etc-- but we leave 30 year old Michelle in much the same state as we found her. An under-payed, underemployed, sometimes sex worker essentially living in a flop house. At least her choice of girlfriend has improved...in some respects.
