THE GREAT EXPANDED SEX WORKER HISTORY READING LIST

Originally made for Olive Seraphim, expanded upon on auntiesandy's request. I've read about a third of these books, and most of the rest are by trusted movement authors or were recommended to me by people whose tastes I admire. A few just looked interesting and ended up on my wish list.

Arrggghhhh, I italicized all the titles and made the font standard on the google doc, but it reverted when I copy pasted, and I can't be bothered to do all that pointing and clicking again. Without further ado:

Forgive the Amazon links:
