Publisher's summary

One woman.

Two lives.

Oh so many men.

One at a time (mostly).

My Whorizontal Life is the true story of a naïve, empathic young woman driven by her desire for fantasy and romance, fearful of the "real world", who dreams of finding true love and being an actress extraordinaire. As poverty and debt overwhelm her, she takes what she thinks will be a very limited leap into the underground work of escorting. But finds it is not so easy to get out. Or maybe she doesn’t want to?

Left me wanting more...

This is not a genre of memoir I would normally read. The subject matter suggests stories designed to titillate and shock, and I presumed that this topic would be a kind of romp into soft porn, like some other memoirs written by women who get paid to have sex, are.

Wrong. Happily wrong.

This book is well-written and the author's intelligence, sensitivity and empathy - as well as her struggle to find acceptance within herself and by others - is beautifully written and well-articulated. Yes, she describes sex scenes, but these are often witty observations or reflections on human nature rather than descriptions of sex acts; one of the author's strengths, I believe. The sex scenes are there to support the story, they're not *the* story, which is what makes this book work.

I purchased this memoir because I happened across the author in a course, and I immediately enjoyed her writing, and followed up by purchasing this audio book, and I'm glad I did.
There are a couple of glitches in the audio version where a sentence is accidentally read out twice, but the story was so engaging I didn't let it bother me - I've dumped far more popular books for grating or annoying narration - these glitches didn't do that.

A sensitively written and observant book on not only the travails of being a 'working girl', but the struggle all creatives battle with - how to fulfill our dream and yet make enough to make living? I can't wait for the second part.

Tenacious at Juilliard and Beyond

Ms. Haven unpacks her heart and makes a great contribution to us all. The unadulterated unveiling of her travails in Gotham City are both inspiring and harrowing, all at once. The demystification of her Lincoln Center drama school journey and challenges thereafter will stay with me forever...

Fascinating, cried multiple times! It’s nice to hear she survived so well with quite a few lapses in judgment...guardian angels ;)

horrible ending

The story is okay; however, the ending leaves you feeling like she just got bored and stopped. The back story is relentless and unnecessary.

Good story, bad editing.

The story was interesting, if somewhat slow at times. The author does a good job narrating, but there are dozens of editing errors throughout the book. It seems like the put the final cut together and then nobody bothered checking it.
