How to Kill Men and Get Away with It

Kenzi Linton

As soon as I saw the title of this book, I was intrigued. The prologue had me even more interested. However, while this book was a fast read, I don’t think it matched up nicely with me. The idea of it was great. I think it could have been fixed up a bit more. There were many characters mentioned and it was a bit hard to keep up with all of them. The main character is supposed to be a villain (obviously as she is a killer) and she is unlikeable. While I understand that it’s like that for a reason, it was hard to read in her POV because of how much I disliked her. It’s definitely a satire book and it was very sarcastic and witty. I wish I could say that I enjoyed reading it more, but it just didn’t work out right for me although it did get better as it went on. The way it ended was a bit confusing though, as the epilogue seemed to leave everything open for interpretation. Alongside this, the book seemed to do a lot more telling rather than sharing. I’m really sad to say that this book just wasn’t it for me. I’m still so incredibly grateful that I was gifted this ARC by Harper Collins 360, and I wish I had better things to say! While this book wasn’t it for me, it does not mean that anyone else won’t like it so please keep that in mind! You may end up having this as your favorite book.

(Also just want to say that the cover of this, where it says “for legal purposes: a novel” made me laugh, so I have lots of love about that)

Loved this book, a humorous serial killer story which was different to anything I've previously read.
