this is the most joyful book about murder i've ever read, and that's a VERY good thing. all the bonding and good times and understanding in the book doesn't merely go with the murder, but draws it into itself, making it almost funny! 5 stars, tysm for the arc, would read again.

Engaging and entertaining. A recommended purchase for collections where offbeat crime and WF is popular.

When I saw Julie Mae Cohen had written a new book, I jumped at a chance to read it and it did not disappoint! It included it all - love, betrayal, murder, gore, heartbreak, but most of all friendship. I really enjoyed the plot. It was fast-moving, and kept me entertained until the last page. Was it realistic? Maybe not, however, it was great fun! It made me feel powerful and I was singing "Single Ladies" when I finished it. If you love a good feminist read - read this one! Thank you Netgalley for the ARC!

Such a good book! I love that these women get to take out their revenge and that they stick up for one another. It was an entertaining read. Possibly a bit unrealistic, but not like over-the-top so it was still very enjoyable!!

Thank you to NetGalley, to the author, and to the publisher for this complementary ARC in exchange for my honest review!!!

Eat Slay Love is a funny and killer novel that passes the Bechdel Test!!

I received an ARC from NetGalley and Overlook Press, and was excited since I recently finished Bad Men, also by Julie Mae Cohen.

This novel focuses on female friendships, the patriarchy, and finding yourself. It had lots of funny moments, and a murder here and there. It isn’t much of a mystery/thriller as the title suggests, but I loved the character development.

I also loved Godzilla.

I loved this! You normally see the scenario of three women and one man in romance novels or empowerment stories. But this was different and funny. It was so good!
