Summary of Cat Marnell's How to Murder Your Life

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I have always wanted to be a beauty editor. I was born in 1982 in Washington, DC, under a crack-rock white moon. I've got a cassette tape recording of my birth and everything. A sample: It's a girl! the doctor announces. A girl. my mother wails. #2 I had it all as a kid: a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist for a neighbor, a tennis court, and a playground carved out of fallen trees that I used as soccer goals.
I sold soda cans and water bottles through the fence for a dollar a pop when tournaments like the US Open came through. #3 I was lucky to live in a special house for ten years. My father, however, insisted on doing the lawns himself, like he was a farmer instead of a psychiatrist. The house was expensive to maintain. #4 My mother was a psychotherapist with a private practice on 42nd Street NW.
She wasn't home much, as she took me to Saks Fifth Avenue in Chevy Chase to see a handbag she was thinking about.
