A review by loganmendivil
Money Shot by Christa Faust
Did not finish book.
This was honestly a DNF which is rare for me as I have a nagging mind set that makes me want to finish what I started. I got a little over half way of the book finished. Figured I should throw that honesty out there before I continue.
This book simply wasn't for me.. the violence, I can take. The descriptive Gore doesn't phase me all that much. However, the sleaziness of the book was the big turn off for me. I understand that the protagonist of the story is a retired porn star and that it deals with some other people in the porn industry but some of the phrases, wording and puns were even unnecessary with the characters background. A porn star is a person and, no I don't know any, but I doubt that when they are off the clock or in a life and death situation they will be tying all their thoughts to porn films or conjuring up all the over the top stage names of some of their co-stars in the past. It made it seem a bit unreal and uncomfortable to read. That of course is my personal opinion as any review for anything is. This just wasn't my cup of tea.
