This book helped me through my recent and horrible breakup. It’s full of wisdom, humor, and kindness. I wish it was 400 pages longer, so I could still be reading it.
This feels like an extension of the poodcast, but getting to know two of your favourite gal pals, that you've never met, a bit better.
This is not a podcast-to-book format, so expecting that would disappoint. They do not go into different true crimes, but it is more akin to the back and forth banter on the show. It is a memoir of their lives and the different trials and tribulations that shaped their lives. Prepare to ugly cry
An enjoyable read. Relatable, made me laugh at parts and reflect in other parts.
This is a great book for fans of the podcast because it gives you the opportunity to better know Karen and Georgia.
I loved Karen and Georgia and their book was hilarious and informative; a quick read that had me laughing and thinking hard. Their advice surrounding relationships and mental health was profound and stayed with me long after closing the book. Fun read, especially for fans of the podcast!
I am not someone who shows emotions often. I’m the kind of person who inwardly laughs at things I find genuinely hilarious, and I only really cry when I’m frustrated or physically wounded.
Enter Karen and Georgia. Just like my reactions while listening to the podcast, this book had me gasping, laughing, and —yes— even crying. I have never read a book that felt like I was sitting down with friends to chat, and I have never (before tonight) cried when I realized how close I was to finishing the book, because I didn’t want the chat to end! I have to keep reminding myself that I have sooooo many episodes of the podcast I can listen to, because finishing this book truly feels like I’m walking away from something I’m never going to find again.
Congratulations on immediately going to my “to re-read pile.” Stay sexy and DON’T get murdered!

Such a disappointment. It’s labeled a how to guide but I really think it’s disconnected. Karen’s chapters were much more meaningful in regards to life lessons . I felt like Georgia just went on and I’m about random experiences in her life and then threw a one or two sentence lesson learned in there. I would have preferred to read a memoir about how the podcast was started, this was just a bust.
I put this audiobook on hold so long ago that I forgot it was non-fiction and not actually a murder mystery novel. So when I started listening to it I was confused and disappointed for about 10 seconds... and then I fell in love. This memoire/self-help book had me laughing and crying the whole time. It took me by surprise, but I loved every second. Especially the chapter on latch-key kids. Whenever I need a laugh/pep-talk, I'm going to listen to this book.
