Some Girls: My Life in a Harem Book

I heard the author give an interview on Howard Stern about this book, and was intrigued not so much by her harem/hooker past but by the fact she is now married to the bassist of Weezer, and they adopted a little boy from Ethiopia... just like me (the Ethiopia part, not the Weezer part).

And okay, the harem thing was sort of interesting. But though this book was readable, by the end I was totally annoyed by the writer. She has the pretense of being this fantastic author who honed her craft during her second tour of duty in the Brunei harem, but there's nothing particularly gripping or striking about her just-competent writing. This book would be downright boring if not for the salacious harem details, and there was nothing really uplifting about it, just the story of a troubled upper-middle-class brat with no ambition and no talent, relying on her body and (dull) wits to make a mint of money as a prostitute. (Two stars because I'm a sucker for salacious harem details.)
