Book: The Teen Sex Trade
By Jade H. Brooks

The Teen Sex Trade is a nonfiction novel about the authors story within the teen sex trade. It follows Jade through her childhood and teens to tell a rich and engaging story about escaping and building a better life for her adult self.

Even though I don’t usually read biographies , I really liked this book. I however found this book to be hard to read due to some of the content discussed during the book.

My favourite part of this book was learning about Jade’s childhood and grasping the unfolding history of her life.

I rate it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 stars
