Drifting, Falling: Diary of a Call Girl Suicide by A.J. Ullman – Review by Kerry Carr

Drifting, Falling — Diary of a Call Girl Suicide by A.J. Ullman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a really emotional read about a young girl who’s life spirals down hill until she sees no way to redeem herself but to commit suicide. Its a thought provoking book that shows you don’t know what another person is thinking, feeling or going through in their life.

It is written using Ripley’s dairy and also has section written by her psychiatrist. Ripley is 21 and has always dreams of becoming an astronaut. However things don’t go as she plans and she ends up becoming a call girl. Filled with sadness and depression she speaks openly ans honestly in her journal about her struggles using humour and sarcasm to hide some of her feelings.

When we see the conversations between Ripley and Dan we see how some people can hide their suffering so that even the professionals can’t tell their true thoughts and feelings.
