Called "Quite simply in a class of its own... the work of a stunningly talented writer who both graces and surpasses her material" (Guardian), this is the frank, harrowing, and true story of one young woman's descent into heroin addiction and prostitution and the long, arduous struggle to redeem her life that made her stronger. A shy, bookish college graduate from a solid middle-class home, Kate Holden was uncertain of her way in life. When she decided to try her first hit of heroin as a one-time adventure with friends, she did not anticipate that the drug would take over. She lost her job and apartment and stole from her family. Desperation drove her first to offer her body on the streets and then in high-class brothels, where she discovered hidden strengths as well as parts of herself that frightened her. With the acceptance and unyielding love of a family that never abandoned her, Kate Holden ultimately defeated the drug and left her netherworld behind.

this book is raw and real its written wonderfully and the narrator read it well, made it seem like it was actually happening and detailed. I highly recommend this. she's confidant and you could hear it from the reader. I couldn't stop listening it went through the book fast and wanted more.

Cavalier, this was very dry. I felt like I wanted to know and understand but was an outsider (customer).

Choppy

I did listen to the whole thing, just wishing the narrator didn't sound so much like a 75 yr old woman. it made the story feel so much older than it was.

ok story, terrible narrator

The book was good - it did lull in some spots, and was anticlimactic, but I did enjoy hearing about the authors journey. Thank you for sharing such intimate parts of your life with the world
