This was a fun continuation of the MFM podcast. It was great to hear some of Karen and Georgia’s background stories, especially since many of them have been hinted to in the podcast. Some of the writing did feel erratic and repetitive at times but overall I enjoyed this book.

It was okay, but I definitely prefer the podcast. Without the banter and Karen’s off the cuff jokes, this book just doesn’t have the same appealing charm that keeps me listening to the pod each week.

I’m actually not a true crime enthusiast, and had never even heard of Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark’s podcast. So it was surprising that I stumbled upon this book. I’m so glad I did though! They’re both hilarious and offer up big, empowering pieces of wisdom in their trademark charismatic way (i.e. go to therapy, being 13 sucks for every girl, and “Fuck politeness”—pursuing your gut feelings and standing up for yourself instead of being polite).
I highly recommend listening to the audiobook which is read by the authors.

A pretty solid dual memoir. I'm glad I was able to enjoy it even though I've never listened to their "My Favorite Murder" podcast.

These two women are some of my favorite people ever. This book was clever and did a great job of including quotes and themes of their podcast without basically being an episode or two in print. Their advice is genuine and from the heart—and you have to appreciate how therapy-positive they are!

Loved this book! Karen & Georgia did what they do best - made me feel less alone in my fears and failures. I loved the short essay style of this book and the way it offered advice and perspective without feeling very “self-helpy”

This is a great book for fans of the podcast because it gives you the opportunity to better know Karen and Georgia.

For me, this was a legit 5 star book. Definitely go with the audio version if possible. The emotion and humor that goes along with hearing the authors telling their stories can't be replicated in print.
I can absolutely see myself listening at least one more time. But for now, I'll be loading up on My Favorite Murder episodes.
