*Thank you Netgalley and the Publisher for providing me with an early copy of this book for review, all opinions are my own*

I'm Brazilian and I think that's why I got interested in this story.
This was a study so I will not judge the truth of the facts, but how they were presented, which was in a graphic novel style which in my opinion was not a good way to present this story.
It made the story shallow, it did not give depth to the characters and made the discussion much less interesting than it could have been done.
In the end, I didn't like it, I know it is a very important and relevant subject to be discussed, but I don't think this story in this format did a good job.
I also didn't like the traces of the drawings or how some words were put in Portuguese, I think they could have written everything in English or Portuguese (besides some translations were not very accurate).
So I think in the end I do not recommend it, there is nothing good in this story in my opinion.

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Interesting way of presenting a social issue through a graphic novel. I thought the conversations felt realistic but the sketches could been sharper. Their faces seemed unclear and not a true illustration of what these Brazilian women looked like. I also thought that this novel didn't really get down to heart of the matter as to why Brazilian women entertain male tourist. In cases where it seems pretty clear the character is exchanging sex for money, her reaction of the exchange is to justify it by saying the guy wanted to help. The novel made the argument too ambiguous. I understand the fear of slut shaming but there has to be a fine line between accepting gifts and money after sex and a real shot at a relationship.
