Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide by Georgia Hardstark, Karen Kilgariff
1.0

Didn’t love it. I’m finding more and more that books filled with unnecessary profanity really bother me. (When did we as a society decide the F word should be used as often or for so many purposes.....? I still cringe at the blatant use of it in any/all entertainment). And instead of just not finishing the book, I will continue reading and just be totally unimpressed with whatever the topic is. Almost like the topic gets overlooked due to the crude language. I do generally enjoy true crime dramas (via podcasts generally), but this book didn’t focus on specific true crime stories as I had hoped it would. Instead, it was more of a memoir about the lives of the authors....which is fine for what it was....but just didn’t appeal to me.
