I thank Netgalley and Simon & Schuster Publications for the opportunity to review this memoir in exchange for my review.

The Memoir is about a woman's obsession with Porn and Sexual fantasies, and her battle to confront the feeling of guilt every time she'd finished with her countless adventures around the world, and how she'd managed to recover being an addict (or at least obliterating that guilty feeling due self-destructive patterns). I felt the book is brutally honest with the way things are portrayed like Henry Miller's kind though I'm still yet to read his. To avoid misconceptions, it's nothing like an erotica (I can say this since I tried one by Sasha Grey) but the psychological battle amongst emotion, numbness, recognition and self-destructive habitual patterns. If she happens to write more, I'll make sure to that one as well.

I could not put this book down! Ms. Garza's account of her struggles with sex and porn addiction were depicted in such a raw and honest way that it made you want to keep reading.

Even though I love to read memoirs, I sometimes have trouble to remain interested, but this was not the case. I highly recommend this book.

Wow, the writings is so honest and bold for a memoir type.

'Getting Off' is Erica Garza's rather raw - and at times painfully honest - account of her years long battle with sex addiction. An affliction which is seldom spoken about, and more so associated with males, it's great to see such a taboo subject talked about with such overwhelming honesty.

Garza's writing takes you on the journey with her, her anecdotes and accounts of situations succinct and snappy and bereft of unnecessary detail, which some auto-biographical accounts can get caught up in. I whizzed through this book in no more than a couple of hours, so fascinated was I by the topic itself, complemented by Garza's brilliant writing style. As you might expect from the subject matter is is certainly x-rated in places and so not suited for the most prudish readers amongst us, but is an eye-opening and fascinating read.
