The book "Better than it seems": is it worth reading?

In this article, weā€™ll talk about Audrey Carlanā€™s book ā€œCalendar Girl. Better than it seems. ā€ This very controversial work caused a wave of controversial works. Some believe that the book is only suitable for hanging in a latrine, while others, on the contrary, assert that ā€œIt is better to be than to seemā€ - a practically masterpiece with a thoughtful plot. Letā€™s try to figure out what this trilogy actually is.

Plot

The narration is conducted on behalf of Mia Sanders, a girl who has fallen into a very difficult, although not uncommon, situation for harsh realities of life. Her father owed a very large sum, and now literally his life depends on this debt. Mia decides to help him by earning a notorious female way. However, she is not going to stand on the track. Her clients are rich, very rich people who are ready to shell out $ 100,000 per month of being in the company of a beautiful woman. She serves in the escort of a hip-hop singer, then plays the role of the sister of a Texas oil magnate.

Storytelling style

Naturally, the age limit of the book is strictly 18+, and the work justifies this rating literally from the first pages. Obscene expressions, unambiguous hints and subtexts ... Quite standard clichƩs of 18+ novels meet us literally at once, and the question creeps in: "How well does the author know his craft, if he has to use banal platitudes to interest the reader with his book?" The life of celebrities is also described very cliched, and very standard for such works. Garages full of Rolls Royces, Mercedes, expensive bikes, and other required attributes.

However, the author nevertheless achieves his goal: the narrative is addictive. And this was written in many reviews of "Better to be than to seem."

Summarizing
