Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide
by Georgia Hardstark, Karen Kilgariff
This is not really what I was expecting... I haven't listened to the podcast but I'm assuming it's about actual murders and thus I was expecting the book version to also be about murders in some way. Instead it's more of a "how to improve your life so that maybe you won't get murdered and probably you'll feel better about yourself, take it from us, we've seen some shit" book, which is... fine? I don't know these people at all so I wasn't predisposed to care about their lives, but they do share some fascinating stories that make me wonder how they've lived this long. Some of their advice I find suspect on its own (like "fuck politeness" - I get it but I don't particularly agree with it) but I think if you take it as a small part of a larger "staying sexy" manifesto it's not so bad. I was pleasantly surprised that this was a short and sweet book and it's great on audio - I found it perfect for both my short commute and a longer drive, and the guest voice actors are hilarious.
