How to Murder Your Life (by Cat Marnell)

I used to be a devout xoJane reader and found Cat Marnell to be equal parts fascinating trainwreck and talented writer, so naturally when this memoir went on sale for Kindle, I snatched it up.

Cat and I probably have literally zero in common -- I don't care about beauty or fashion, certainly don't think it should be aspirational at all costs, and neither have a trust fund nor enjoy snorting angel dust. But the woman can write. I'm not even sure how she does it -- there's a spark to her writing that I can't pin down.

And so, despite disagreeing with her worldview on almost every page, and completely in spite of myself, I devoured and loved this book.
