AliceF made me take it.

Finally got around to reading this.
The title and the strapline imply coercion or at least a connection, but Carla's choice to become a nun, although ill-informed and possibly misguided, was her own, as was her later decision to turn to prostitution. In spite of the bullying to which she was subject in the order, she describes many positive aspects of all phases of her life and has forgiven most people. As a result the anger or guilt which might have given her story some tension is non-existent and it ends up being rather 'so what?' She has had a couple of 'careers' which seem to be polar opposites, but that's about it. I was also rather confused at some points by a timeline which seemed to meander without good cause, and wished the editor had taken that in hand.
