In Killing Monica Bushnell spoofs and skewers her way through pop culture, celebrity worship, fame and even the meaning of life itself, when a famous writer must resort to faking her own death in order to get her life back from her most infamous creation - Monica. With her trademark humour and style, Killing Monica is Bushnell's sharpest, funniest book to date.

This is Bushnell at her best - full of mordant wit, casual sex and highly conspicuous consumption.©2015 Candace Bushnell Literature & Fiction Satire Women's Fiction

Critic reviews

Full to the brim with scandal . . . Bushnell's trademark sharp humour makes this a must-read
Packed with her trademark wit . . . a perfect summer read
Fans of Sex and the City rejoice . . . Bushnell's wit is devastatingly dark and subversive . . . a welcome antidote to saccharine tales of finding "the one"
Fabulous
One of those novels you promise you will read for half-an-hour, only to realise when you look up again that several hours have passed . . . a pacy read packed with juicy scandal and lashings of wry humour
All stars

After enjoying Lipstick Jungle years ago I decided to try another book by Candace Bushnell, but unfortunately I have not enjoyed Killing Monica, it doesn't flow at all. The only thing that slightly saves it on audiobooks is the narrator. As I was half way through before realising it wasnt going to get any better I thought I may aswell continue to the end. Save yourselves and avoid wasting your time on this one.
