An absolutely amazing autobiography. I love MFM and have been a fan for four years now. I bought the hardback a year ago, but I decided to get the audiobook and hear Georgia and Karen's story from their own mouths. This book had me laughing and crying (so much crying) and I learned so much about myself and the other women around me. It made me feel seen and that I wasn't alone in the experiences that I've had with myself, my mother, and my experiences with men and society. These are two incredible women and I want to thank them so much for sharing their story and baring their souls. It's raw, vulnerable, and overall kickass.

I went into this book knowing a relatively small amount about it. I saw it being posted on social media here and there, and the title grabbed me (props to whoever came up with it). It was fun to hear Georgia and Karen's stories, and how they relate to both their podcast/career and various real-life experiences. As someone who is also very interested in crime, murder, true crime, etc., I found myself wanting more of that discussion than what was in the book. Although I was not familiar with the authors' podcast prior to reading this book, after reading it I would definitely check their podcast out.
