Kitty Collins book number 2. I had read another book by Katy Brent before, and although I enjoyed it, it wasn't really my kind of read. Even though I hadn't read book 1 of this, I couldn't give up the opportunity to revisit this author, and I am so glad that I did. If you have read book 1, then you are already familiar with Kitty Collins. If you have not, then don't jump in like I did. Go and get book 1 first. I really don't think you'll be disappointed!

I was so impressed by this book. Kitty Collins is a fantastic character, and my new favorite serial killer. I love the fact that it was such an easy read, even laugh out loud funny at times, and yet there's some very bad men getting dealt with in gruesome detail. It is very difficult to write such a book and have it turn out so well. There was a dept to the plot, rather than just killing for killings sake. I did think at one particular point that it may be a little triggering for some people, so if you do have triggers I suggest checking that out before reading. I never guessed what was coming next. I am delighted that the ending left plenty of scope for further adventures for Kitty. I shall be reading book 1 very soon to get the full back story, before eagerly awaiting the next one.

Thank you to NetGalley and HQ for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Kitty Collins #2. Thank you for the opportunity to read this ARC. I thoroughly enjoyed this book (which is odd because it had a lot of murder, lying and cheating involved). I have not read the first in the series, but intend to definitely do so now I have read this. 'I bet you'd look good in a coffin' was fabulously funny, serious at times (touching on sensitive topics such as rape), but overall providing light hearted approach to the situations Kitty finds herself in. I can't wait to read of the series and find out what crazy situations Kitty might find herself in

This was another great read by Katy Brent with one small exception, Kitty Collins has gone woke!
With the whole reason for most of Kitty's many kills and the inclusion of incel culture in this book I found it very hard to understand why she would be fine with a man, no matter how he was dressed and saw himself, invading a women's support group!
Aside from that issue, this book was another fun read. Following Kitty as she tries to figure out just who Blaze is especially after he starts to appear to target her in his posts was almost fun. Seeing her wrong turns here and there and how they affect her relationships with Charlie, her mother and her friends gave a few LOL moments but also some tearful ones too.
This is one of those books that takes you emotionally on a journey and leaves you almost begging for more by the last page. We need more Kitty Collins soon, please!

Kitty Collins is in recovery. Not from alcohol, drugs or any of the usual suspects, but from killing. That is until she feels she has to.
She is also being taunted by a misogynist called Blaze Bundy. So much so that she feels threatened when attending her Mother's wedding.
I really enjoyed this, just as good as the previous book.

Although I enjoyed this book I wouldn’t give it five stars as seems to be the norm for all other reviewers. The writing style is flowing and the storyline is easy to follow and fast moving. It did keep me interested to the end, but I wouldn’t be too upset if I don’t catch the sequel.

Thank you to netgalley for allowing me to review this book. I was a big fan of How to Kill Men and Get Away with it, I was thrilled to see a second book about Kitty Collins - and it didn't disappoint!
I found this one so hard to put down - I particularly love the deliciously dark humour throughout.
It covers some sadly very relevant, dark and gritty topics at the same time to having a page turner of a story.
I loved it, and it's left me hoping for a third book.

I really couldn’t put this down. What a book, utterly fantastic! Kitty Collins is a serial killer, but one with a conscience she only kills men that deserve it because the justice system is failing women.
Kitty has tried hard to stop, even joining a group, Angry Women Anonymous, to try and find an outlet for her anger. That and being happy with her boyfriend, Charlie, but nothing really works and it doesn’t take much for her to fall off the rails.
Well written and with a few twists along the way. Definitely one to read.

Kitty is back!!!
Totally loved it and read it so fast!!

She’s such an easy character to love and hate and I just could not stop reading.

The dialogue is witty and smart and I just devoured the whole book!

She’s fab, the lifestyle is fab, the story is fab, the writing is fab!!!
Great read, loved it!!!

Thanks so much to NetGalley and the amazing author it was a pleasure 😊

I never believe the sequel to a book is better than the original, but I may think this book may be an exception. Everything about this book was just 10/10. This book was hilarious, heartbreaking and massively thought provoking, especially regarding social media in this day and age.

I absolutely adore Kitty. Yes… she may need some serious therapy but this girl is amazing. In a world of toxic masculinity and misogyny, we all need a Kitty Collins.

Thank you NetGalley & Katy Brent for the ARC x

"Men are just allowed to be angry, aren't they? But not us. Somehow female rage is something we have to suppress"

This book was an absolute rollercoaster from the first page and I'd have not expected anything less. I recently read book 1 and was truly was overwhelmed with the focus of the story and how real the threat was. It was uncomfortable and very intense.

And while book 2 was the same in that light, it had a different feeling to it, it was not as intense with the murder (which I appreciate) but still focused heavily on what it is like to be a woman in this would. Though there is a gap in time, the threat of a man will never leave. Because as quoted in this book "The system isn't broken at all. It's working exactly how it was designed to work, by the men who designed it". While I of course feel very disturbed by Kitty's actions and at times feel extremely floored, I understand why she is doing what she is doing, especially being a woman myself.

In a way, this book had a lighter and more fun side alongside the harrowing details. The undertone of mystery and who was coming after our MC had me on the edge of my seat and thinking like a detective myself. Though I was wrong with all my guesses, I still found myself so caught up within the narrative of this novel that once the reveal was made, all the previous interactions came rushing back into my mind and it all made complete sense.

The urgency our mc was feeling, was reflected within the short chapters of this book. Although sprinkled within were longer chapters, it added to the suspense and had me wishing I could read this book quicker. Another thing I really loved and this is in book 1 too was the chapter titles stating where Kitty is. It is such a lovely touch and I wish more books were like this.

Of course this book is unrealistic but that is the whole point! when you remove this notion from your thoughts, it opens up the story so much more. Because while our females approach is unrealistic, all of the male characters approaches and actions are not. They are very much real and happening constantly.


It is safe to say I enjoyed this book so much more than book 1 and I really hope with the way book 2 ended, we are being set up for another book.

I will say one thing that I do wish this book did have was trigger warnings about some of the things that do get discussed within this book as they are graphic and sensitive and may really impact someone if they read something like this and they can unfortunately relate.

Another one of Katy's books that didn't disappoint. So easy to read, yet still has all the drama, humour, suspense and quality you need.

Kitty is back!! I was so excited to see a sequel to the brilliant "How To Kill Men And Get Away With It" Thank you to HQ for inviting me to read this book and providing a digital copy.

We rejoin Kitty's story a year on from the previous book. She's in a relationship and trying to go sober ... from murdering men. She's even joined a therapy group to try and control her rage. So she is trying soooooo hard but some men just deserve it. Especially men like Blaze Bundy, an influencer spouting misogyny and encouraging violence against women. So what's a girl to do?

I adore Kitty Collins. She's a sassy and fierce, vegan serial killer that you just have to root for. Think a female Dexter in killer heels. Her inner dialogue is razor sharp and darkly humourous. While this is fun read there are some gruesome parts too so not for the faint hearted. I enjoyed the humour and also the fast paced thriller aspects that kept me guessing.

I love Katy Brent's writing style and have my fingers crossed for a third Kitty Collins book.

Such a funny read, had me laughing throughout. Book 2 in Kitty Collins and I will definitely go back and read the first one. She's a great character., I wish I’d read book 1 1st.

This book took me longer to read than expected as after starting I had to buy book 1 and read it first. This was definitely a good move as it gave so much more context than the recaps.

Kitty Collins is a rich woman who has strong beliefs, she is vegan, a feminist and a serial killer with a code. A bit like a female Dexter but more fashionable. She kills bad men as killing women is against her code except in extremis. In this book she has another stalker and despite trying to avoid social media and her previous influencer status she can't help checking what Blaze Bundy is saying about her. She tries to keep on top of her anger and her self imposed ban on murder with coping mechanisms. One is her boyfriend Charlie who is unaware of her dark side and another is joining an angry women group. This concept is fantastic and I would like to attend one sometimes. I am not sure it's that helpful for Kitty though.

The first 50% of the book while although has lots of action is mainly building up to the 2nd half which is even better but I don't want to give any spoilers. I am impressed with her ability to avoid being absolutely drenched in blood and wonder how she is able to get rid of a body worth of blood without detection.

Thank you to Netgalley and HarperCollins for the ARC.

Excellent sequel to How to kill men and get away with it! Such an enjoyable read with a great pace and plenty of twists, ideal for those of us who love an antihero, I'm always rooting for Kitty even when she makes awful choices. Can't wait for book 3

It was lovely to be back with Kitty, like being with an old friend. I love Brent’s writing style, it is so good to read and hilarious. I loved seeing Kitty on this new adventure and although I preferred the first book, I still enjoyed it. The mystery was fun and had a few twists towards the end. Quite frankly I’ll read anything Brent writes because she is just that good.

I've been looking forward to reading this one, and it was super easy to get back into. I've struggled a bit with getting into everything I've picked up so far this month, so it was so good to just pick up a book and think straight away 'yes this is good'
I'd forgotten some of what happened in book one, but there are little throwbacks that helped me remember, and it was great to be back with the sarcastic and murderous Kitty.
Although I found the first half more slower paced as Kitty fights with her urges to kill, I couldn't put it down once we hit the 50% mark. Things definitely got a bit pacier and, at times, tense.
I love how we get to know Kitty more on a deeper level during this book and how she's fiercely protective of those she loves.
I also loved that it kept me guessing! There were a few things I was right about, but there were also a few parts where I was way off.
As with book one, you have to take it with a pinch of salt, however its a great and entertaining read that I loved.
Book 2 definitely didn't disappoint.
4⭐️

I loved this book.
Kitty Collins isn’t just mad about her own treatment at the hands of men, she is furious at what is happening all the time to women everywhere! And she knows exactly how to deal with them.
Leaving a trail of corpses in her wake Kitty falls off her self imposed “no killing” wagon in spectacular fashion.
A must read!

The title is a winner for a kick-off. Whilst one shouldn’t laugh at or condone murder, it’s rather hard not to when you read the reasons why certain men are murdered by our heroine: they deserve it, plain and simple. As a millionaire’s daughter, one of the Chelsea Ladies Who Lunch, our heroine delivers coups des graces with aplomb, panache and utter ruthlessness, especially in pursuit of justice for her friends and those who are denied such luxury. Nor does she dither or delay – swift and sure, the Sword of Damocles swings into action. Then her own life is threatened by someone who knows what she has done.
Katy Brent’s deft and hilarious handling is tremendous – the dialogue and inner dialogue wicked and wildly dark – with startling 'unexpecteds' and red herrings thrown in with abandon. I loved all the characters, the settings apropos, the lead-in for the next volume artfully delivered.
'Course, I will have to read volume one now.

I can't decide if I liked this book or found it a bit dark.
I didn't realise this book was a sequel, so feel that maybe I would have liked the character more if I got to know her in the first book.
I found Kitty a bit dark with how much she seemed to enjoy the thought of murdering people, but was still interested to read how her story finished.
Even though I'm not 100% sure I liked it, I think it would make a good book club choice at my library and there are PLENTY of themes in there to discuss and debate.
