How to Kill Men and Get Away With It

The title of this book caught my attention. I mean, I think most women can find a bitter amusement at first glance. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), I quickly lost amusement and felt like I'd crossed over a morally grey threshold.

I sympathize. Really I do. Self-defense, scorn, what have you. Initially, I could understand where Kitty was coming from. That didn't last long. She became one of the most unlikable and reckless protagonists I've ever encountered. To summarize as quickly as possible, Kitty is an influencer with a hit list and she's vegan (which we hear about repeatedly).

I understand the point the author was aiming for. Women often get a raw deal in life. I just don't think this is the way to get that message across. I thought I had a decent sense of dark humor but I guess not. The further into the book I read the more it unsettled me. My greatest takeaway was the realization that I'm not as desensitized to subjects like murder as I thought I'd become. Lastly, I don't know why this is categorized as a thriller. Crime, yes, but I wasn't the least bit on edge.

A huge thanks to Harper360 for sending me an ARC copy of the book to read and review.
