Meaningful messages, but not a whole lot of “don’t get murdered” specific advice. Thought it would be a bit more true crime focused than it was. Also, self help is not my typical genre so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

An absolutely amazing autobiography. I love MFM and have been a fan for four years now. I bought the hardback a year ago, but I decided to get the audiobook and hear Georgia and Karen's story from their own mouths. This book had me laughing and crying (so much crying) and I learned so much about myself and the other women around me. It made me feel seen and that I wasn't alone in the experiences that I've had with myself, my mother, and my experiences with men and society. These are two incredible women and I want to thank them so much for sharing their story and baring their souls. It's raw, vulnerable, and overall kickass.

Not a lot about staying sexy or not getting murdered. I don't know the podcast which made it extra tricky to appreciate the book.

this is the highly anticipated MFM memoir! i normally don’t like memoirs, but i really enjoyed this one. karen & georgia became much more relatable human beings, and they really perfected their brand of humor here.
