Proclaimed "girl-pervert" Oriana Small, aka Ashley Blue, a veritable artist at heart, weaves through the intricacies of a decade in and out of the adult film industry, love, drugs, and her own firebrand of what it means to live ecstatically. From accolades to agony, Girlvert illuminates the surreality of a life lived beyond all comprehension.

I’m not sure what I just read, or where it’s rightful place among books lies. I almost stopped in the first third, but somehow I came to like her, even among some descriptions she uses that made me cringe. I’ve learned that it takes all kind to make a world, and after reading so many memoirs and learning of so many things people do and experience, nothing surprises me. In the end, I rated it so highly for both her writing technique and her courage to tell such a story. I first thought I’d wandered into the back room of the video store by mistake. My first response was WTF? You’ll just have to decide for yourself.

I’m Not sure

Ms. Small dispences with hard intel on the dark insides of PornValley California.AV is a cut throat ugly business & Ms. Small pulls no punches....


Ought be required reading for anyone even thinking about performing in or working on adult films.

VERY NSFW as it describes how sausage is made...

A tour de force memoir of excess-

Oriana Small aka Ashley Blue did a great job writing and reading her work for us. I really enjoyed this and appreciate the frank, direct way she tells her stories. I have always found the adult industry interesting and I'm sure I'd work in the field if I lived in that area. I really enjoyed the pacing, the thoroughness of Oriana Small's stories and the intelligent way this woman's life is portrayed. She's amazing, this book was amazing. I loved it and recommend it highly to people who like learning about the behind-the-scenes aspect of the adult film industry. I hope she continues to write because she is clearly great at it.

Happy. I wish more books like this existed. A+

The narration was easy to listen to and I feel like each chapter came to life so easily.

Loved it

I liked the book a lot. I dont usually read stuff like this because they tend to turn to jokes like Jenna Jameson's autobiography. I never read that yet it made itself into an episode of House MD. This is honestly written and hoestly read. Well, as honest as it could be I guess. I think if it were to be made into a TV series or streaming series or a movie, it would be well recieved. This memoir is a shitshow but an honest shitshow. Last time I felt what I'm feeling right now, I had just finished watching Blow starring Johnny Depp.

Her story answered a lot of questions I had about how someone would chose to work in the porn industry. Very good book....

I was around the industry during Ashley’s time in the adult industry. Her Girlvert persona immediately captured my imagination and her work still stands out during a time when porn was produced mostly to the lowest common denominator. Ashley’s work really was performance art if you cared to take the time to see it.

I put off reading this book for so long because I was worried it would be one of those regret-porn memoirs that would make me feel dirty about celebrating her work. However Ashley/Oriana lays bare all the good and bad. She made mistakes, she made art. She was manipulated and she manipulated others. Its pretty refreshing to hear her expose her own faults and not just those of people in her life.

There are parts of this book that made me feel bad for Ashley. Then other parts that made me disappointed in Ashley. And still parts that are absolutely hilarious. Its a great read/listen and really unlike anything you’ve probably ever read before.

5*

What an experience

If you are looking for a prism that disturbs the fabric shrouding the behind the scenes dealings of the pornographic industry, then this book does a great job. Be warned, not for individuals repellant to sexual graphic details.

Brutally honest; Love it.
