I bought this a while ago because I knew I'd love it, but I'm so bad at reading the stuff I own. Those shiny library hardcovers just call my name (also their due dates are constantly breathing down the back of my neck). But I finally read it, and I do love it!

Both Charlotte Shane and merritt k are so smart, so articulate, and also so empathetic and willing to be raw and honest. The conclusions they come to -- about feminism, sex work, bodies, relationships -- are full of nuance and so flexible and open to change. They seem to delight in the moments that they disagree almost as much as the moments they agree. It's lovely to watch, and I'd love to read 200 more pages of their conversations. I also own Prostitute Laundry and N.B., and I'm extra excited to read both now!
