In the age of Tinder, Hinge, or any other dating app that matches you with randos, the dating game has grown complex and confusing. Cue the Betches. First we helped you win at basically everything, and now we're going to help you win the most important battle a betch can face. Maybe you're a Delusional Dater who needs to get in touch with reality (seriously, he's just not that f***ing into you), or perhaps you're a TGF who needs to stop being so desperate and start playing the game.

By twenty-two, she had resigned herself to employment, but was still broke, directionless, and working a mediocre day job she’d taken for the health insurance. It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay. Eight years later, she is the founder, CEO, and creative director of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus online fashion retailer with more than 350 employees.

From breakout stand-up comedian Iliza Shlesinger comes a subversively funny collection of essays and observations on a confident woman's approach to friendship, singlehood, and relationships. "Girl Logic" is Iliza's term for the way women obsess over details and situations that men don't necessarily even notice. She describes it as a characteristically female way of thinking that appears to be contradictory and circuitous but is actually a complicated and highly evolved way of looking at the world.

Publisher's Summary
Look, maybe you're a nice girl, but we're guessing you're more like us or you probably wouldn't have downloaded this audiobook. Not that we have a problem with girls who are nice people. But being nice is just not the way to get what you want. And this audiobook is about getting what you want. Not in a finding happiness, giving back to the world, being grateful for what you have sort of way. But in a ruling your world, being the most desired, powerful badass in the room way, so you can come out on top of any situation: Guys, career, friends, enemies, whatever.
How does a betch make that happen? Here are some highlights:
- Don't be easy.
- Don't be poor.
- Don't be ugly.
We didn't come up with these life lessons. We're just the ones who wrote it all down.
This is not self-help. Self-help is for fat people and divorcées. This is how to deal with your problems when you have no problems. You're welcome.

Taken with a light heart, this book is fabulous!
This book by no means is a guide to live a happy life nor should the advice in the book be taken seriously. That being said it is a very entertaining read scattered with some lessons of life that all young women encounter at some point in their lives. If you are in college or soon approaching, consider this book a part of your freshman orientation.

What disappointed you about Nice Is Just a Place in France?
I'm 25 so maybe I am too old for this book - I can appreciate the humor and snark in this book but it is essentially a guide for idiot girls. Maybe I would have liked this when I was 18 or 19 but honestly its a bit too much for me now. However, if you're a hot mess who only likes to party their ass off then this book is for you.

How to live your life by rich, coked out whores
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
The only people I could see liking this book are sorority sisters and similar types of privileged, stupid girls who try to live their life by riding off other people's coattails (their parents, significant others, etc.)
Has Nice Is Just a Place in France turned you off from other books in this genre?
Yes
What didn’t you like about Arika Rapson’s performance?
Her voice is very annoying and it sounded like she was trying to have an annoying voice purposefully.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
I enjoyed the snarky, offensive jokes
Any additional comments?
The title of my review is what the book should have been called. I was only able to listen to a little over an hour of this audiobook before I had to turn it off. I am by no mean offended easily, but this book was so stupid and annoying, I could not listen to any more.

Skewed definition of what “nice” is
“The real victim is women’s denigration of themselves”, after denigrating general women who aren’t popular, aren’t what every man wants to date, and even calls out a specific woman they chose was a “nice” girl.
Describes the original “betch” (their own word) in high school AS a bitch, then says that being a bitch is different.
Couldn’t get any further into the book than the first chapter; once they started talking about using manipulation to get what you want, I’m out.
