Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered is a great companion book to listen to when you've caught up on all the My Favorite Murder podcast episodes. This funny, inspiring, and brutally true book gives readers a closer look at how Georgia and Karen are as real people. Hilarious stories, true crime, and practical mental health advice all in one place!

As a fan of the MFM podcast this book was a great read. Their storytelling is fun and personal. It's a lot like hanging out with your really cool aunts who cuss a little more than your mom would like them to. If you haven't listened to the podcast I recommend giving an episode or two a listen before purchasing this book. The podcast is free to listen to and gives readers an idea of their humor and storytelling style.

I went into this book knowing a relatively small amount about it. I saw it being posted on social media here and there, and the title grabbed me (props to whoever came up with it). It was fun to hear Georgia and Karen's stories, and how they relate to both their podcast/career and various real-life experiences. As someone who is also very interested in crime, murder, true crime, etc., I found myself wanting more of that discussion than what was in the book. Although I was not familiar with the authors' podcast prior to reading this book, after reading it I would definitely check their podcast out.
