Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide by Georgia Hardstark, Karen Kilgariff
4.0

As other reviewers pointed out, Karen and Georgia write the way they talk. Unfortunately, it doesn’t translate as well on paper. BUT, if you know and love MFM, it’s not too hard to get past.

I’m glad they approached this as a joint memoir/self-help book and not a true-crime book. One of the reasons the podcast works is because they’re having a conversation. And with a podcast, you can make corrections in the next episode. Books aren’t that forgiving, so it was smart that they pivoted the focus of the book away from true crime. It plays into their strengths well.
