On My Shelf: Extra Confessions of a Working Girl by Miss S.


Welcome back to On My Shelf, my Sunday series where I spotlight a random book from my collection — sometimes a beloved read, sometimes one still waiting patiently on my TBR.


This week's pick

This week’s pick is a bold and provocative memoir: Extra Confessions of a Working Girl by Miss S.

I remember picking this one up because I was intrigued by Miss S’s honesty in sharing her unconventional career path. It’s not my usual read, but sometimes the most unexpected books are the most eye-opening.






Extra Confessions of a Working Girl book cover
Miss S continues her revealing memoirs in Extra Confessions of a Working Girl. Having left behind the sauna where she was top girl, Miss S moves to London to start work as a stripper. But after one of the other dancers burns her in the back with a cigarette, she decides to try her hand at something new. It's in an escort agency that Miss S finds her true vocation, and where she encounters a colourful cavalcade of clients, including Mr Fingers and Mr Slimeball, to name just two. Packed with yet more eye-opening and true stories of what really goes on behind the scenes in the sex industry, including fetish clubs and swinging parties, Extra Confessions of a Working Girl is another addictive read written by one honest, feisty and fiercely independent lady - the illusive Miss S. Miss S started working as a paid companion when she was a student, working in a brothel. Witty, intelligent and ambitious, Miss S knows how to achieve what she wants in a job that she loves... and that she's very, very good at. She now works independently in London.


Have you read any memoirs that completely surprised you? I’d love to hear your recommendations in the comments!

    Is this similar to The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl? :-)

      I've not read The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl but I imagine they're very similar from what I know about them.

      Thanks. I thought it would be a good way to show some love to the books sat on my shelves. With so many new books coming out it's easy to forget about the older ones.

      It is. Taught me a lot I didn't know about the sex industry that's for sure.

      This is not my usual genre choice. I ended up with it by chance. It was free with a magazine I purchased at the airport years ago. I figured I might as well get the one with a free book ;) Glad I did as I probably would never have read it otherwise.
