Samantha's Reviews > The Prostitutes of Lake Wiishkoban

** spoiler alert ** Being a small town girl myself, I can relate to her easily. The monotony of the routine, the need to get out, the shock that comes with the immense difference between a town and a city, and the desire to go home when it all feels hopeless. I can't relate to being a prostitute, but then I don't have a degree in library science lol
From start to finish, the book captivated me. The characters are made real by their descriptions. It all becomes easy to visualize without lengthy overdramatic padding. This makes it a fast read but that in no way diminishes the impact the story has on the reader.
