I felt that the pacing was slow at times, but it ended up picking up. The story can be very graphic at times so reader be aware. Overall, pretty good read.

Pretty Girls is an intense whirlwind of a ride. This is one of the few audiobooks to grab my attention at the very beginning and hold it all the way through. I couldn’t put it down. There were moments that had me at the edge of my seat and others that had me sobbing. My one criticism is just the intensity of some of the material. This is not for the faint of heart.
