Book Reviews of The Internet Escort's Handbook Book 1: The Foundation
Book Review: Nothing New, but Informative
Summary: 3 Stars
As a blogger of social analysis in urban America, I read pretty much anything and everything involving the interraction between men an women. With this said, I ordered this book based on some MSN coverage of it. Ms. Brooks did, in fact, write a fairly comprehensive guide for anyone who sleeps around for a living; which may or may not include an ex or two of mine. And I applaud her for standing up for who she is, rather than hiding behind some veiled persona like the legion of gold-diggers who call themselves "students," but with a penchant for Ritz Carlton's. But I had to pull a couple of stars for what appeared to be an unedited manuscript [endless gramatical errors], and because her paranoia over STI's [STD'S] was almost ridiculous. She should go into the condom business. I mean we're talking about condoms for sexual organs, condoms for mouths, condoms for fingers...there was no end to it. I got the impression that the woman would show up for her appointments in a full-bore wetsuit and bug spray; never coming into contact with any actual flesh at all. Who would want to order up this service? Personally, I'd do it myself and then go for the popcorn, a glass of Savignon Blanc [New Zealand or France] and a movie.
Summary of The Internet Escort's Handbook Book 1: The Foundation
Most people are curious; what is it like to work as an escort? According to numerous sex surveys, one of women's top fantasies is to be paid for sex. But escort work is not as simple as money for sex. Brooks, a former escort, has written a myth-exploding examination of what escort work requires from the escort while creating an honest and humane vision of a mysterious, maligned business.
The book is not a recruitment tool because the job is not for everyone. The Foundation is a reference written to create a realistic awareness of the pitfalls and bonuses of escort work for current and future escorts, as well as the curious public. Ultimately, safe and sane escort work leads to happier, healthier escorts. (And happy escorts make for happy clients.)
