Description

I loved the humour of this book and couldn't get enough of this story. I definitely recommend this as a must read.' NetGalley reviewer, They’re my constants. The family I was able to choose.” What did you think of Kitty’s friendship group? Looking to get your teeth into a juicy, darkly funny crime novel at your book group? You’d do well to consider bringing Katy Brent’s How to Kill Men and Get Away With It to the table. I debated on whether or not to even approach reviewing "How to Kill Men and Get Away With It," but dang it, that cover and title hooked me and then I spent a day and a half of my time plodding through to the end. I hate being a meanie -- especially when it involves a debuting author. But -- sometimes it just needs to be said.

Another unfortunate negativity is that this book is riddled with spelling mistakes, dropped words and incomplete sentences. Screaming for a final proofread.

I highly suspect that a lot of people are not going to like this book because they will not find Kitty likeable. I totally understand that; I am the same way. However, in this case, I actually liked Kitty, in spite of the fact that I often ridicule her kind (Influencers). Once again, her antics and shenanigans made me laugh, while at the same time were incredibly sad too (tragicomedy). This makes her a good MC in my book. And this folks, is why I prefer to read fiction instead of non-fiction! A story doesn’t have to be believable for me to enjoy it. Nothing. I've been trying to come up with any aspects that I liked about this book, but I seriously couldn't think of anything. It’s absolutely entertaining, smart, twisty, riveting psychological thriller! I’m rounding up 4.5 to 5 extra surprising, sarcastic, darkest stars! I absolutely had so much fun! Although the relatively small cast of secondary characters is not given much depth, they are skilfully used to drive and enrich the story's themes. There's also the fact that she pretends to "save" women from the men to justify her murders, but she's also condescending towards basically every woman she encounters. Why bother "helping" women if you can't stand any of them.

The side characters. Each and every one of them felt like a caricature or a parody. None of them were properly fledged out. I also disliked how a lot of them were introduced with their name and then their follower count. Yes, I get that the author was probably trying to empathize Kitty's priorities there, but I still found it dumb. She is dead set against murdering animals (agreed here) but she kills men? For a ghosting her friend? Kitty is an influencer turned serial killer ‘a la Dexter’ and I love her! She’s such a bad ass, with a dark dark sense of humor, a lot of sarcasm in her and a little sweet edge. She’s also very psycho..One night, after a party at the nightclub, Kitty is followed home by a guy who wouldn’t leave her alone and would not take NO for an answer. During the course of the events, she accidentally pushes him causing his instant death. Summing up, the whole women’s safety episode (at night, while traveling alone and a woman having to take things into her own hands) was great, but vividly graphic accounts of all the gory stuff, and Kitty’s personality did leave a bad taste.
