This book shares details of childbirth, but the stories of prostitution were more unsettling.

I wouldn’t have liked this book had I not seen the show. The writing style wasn’t for me, and I didn’t love the pacing of the story. The book kept me interesting though and I did really enjoy reading about the characters and stories from the show, so I will probably read the rest of the series

I had no idea that the TV show was so true to life. I figured the writers probably made things way more dramatic than they really were, but it seems that, if anything, the show is probably playing things down, not up.
