Interesting enough read, well-written if (much) less shocking today than the introduction claims that it was at the time of publication. I did admire the total lack of sugar-coating, but it was hard for me to connect with any of the characters. I felt as if, by reading, I were rewarding their poor choices with attention - and the three women at the centre of this book are all so desperate for attention that they'll pretty much do anything for it. Well, I was moderately entertained by them, and now the book is over I have no desire to spend another thought on them.

I suspect that may have been the author's intention.
