Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl : A Nancy Chan Novel (2)

Title: Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl : A Nancy Chan Novel
Author: Tracy Quan
Genre: Fiction

I first read this book when it was published in the summer of 2001 and enjoyed it very much. Salon.com pre-published a few chapters from it and I was hooked. I've been running a book club for almost a year now and at our last meeting a few members mentioned wanting to read something more "adventurous" and unexpected. This book came to mind. Everyone was pretty game for it. I remembered the basic plot but had forgotten just exactly how sexually explicit it was and what the writing was like. I can safely say though that I enjoyed it this time just as much. It's fun, silly, and some plot points are highly implausible but I didn't mind at all.

Highly recommended for readers who don't mind explicit sexual talk in books and oh yeah, and who don't mind the obvious topic of prostitution.

My book club meets on Tuesday and I can't wait to see what the other members thought of it. I've heard from one who loved it (she was one who clamoring for something more adventurous) but there are a few slightly more modest members and I can't wait to hear them talk about this book.
