"If you could overdose on autobiography, this book would be lethal."
NY Times Book Review
Here's some Thursday readers' advisory for you. Jenna Jamison's autobiography (written with generous help from Rolling Stone writer Neil Strauss) is so riveting I could hardly put it down to write this. When I left off she was a stripper in Las Vegas, down to 85 pounds from meth, writhing hysterically on the bathroom floor of her trailer, inconsolable because her drug dealing, tatoo artist biker boyfriend just left her. How does she overcome all this to become the acme of the porn world, the most downloaded woman of the internet? I'm a sucker for against all odds success stories, especially ones written like the author is on a meth jag! Added bonus: lots and lots of photographs, plus sage advice about the pitfalls of the biz, which she learned the hard way. You might have trouble finding a copy at your local library, though.
