and Georgia Hardstark share practical wisdom in "Stay Sexy and
Don't Get Murdered," which is a No. 1 debut on our advice, how-to
and miscellaneous best-seller list."--The New York
Times"Hardstark and Kilgariff's podcast takes on crime, death and
other gory subjects, all filtered through the pair's subversive wit
as they riff on life's craziness, often sharing details from their
own mental health and substance abuse struggles. This openness
translates onto the page. A kind of life guide...the book is just
as funny as the podcast but often goes deeper into painful
subjects." --Los Angeles Times"All the best advice your mother
never told you." --Jenny Lawson, #1 New York Times
bestselling author of Furiously Happy"Kilgariff and Hardstark
bring a much needed dimension to our current, true crime fever

compassion, and nervous hope. Their podcast is a joy to listen to
and this book captures its energy and hilarity perfectly." --Patton
Oswalt, New York Times bestselling author of Silver Screen Fiend
"In addition to being laugh-out-loud funny, smart, and incisive,
Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered is so interesting and insightful

for real ask them to take me on as a therapy patient. This book is
hilarious, honest, insightful, and clever as hell. Do yourself a
fun favor by buying it and consuming it. You'll emerge at the final
word as a new-and-improved badass version of your former self."

with your best friend that spills late into the night--where you
share your darkest secrets and hardest-earned advice, and then
emerge back into the world fully recharged. And ready to destroy
toxic masculinity. Karen and Georgia are the voice of a
movement--badass and vulnerable as hell--and this is their
manifesto." --Stephanie Perkins, New York Times bestselling author
of There's Someone Inside Your House
