After reading this book, which was very well done by the co-writer, I have far less respect for Ava than I did before. Her constant swearing and bad language made her seem trashy, which distracts from her physical beauty. If her use of language had matched her beauty, I would have more respect for her. Money, however, is the bottom line.
