“Heartbreaking…Go read the book, everyone.” —Alex Cooper, host of the Call Her Daddy podcast

Megan Fox showcases her wicked humor throughout a heartbreaking and dark collection of poetry. Over the course of more than seventy poems Fox chronicles all the ways in which we fit ourselves into the shape of the ones we love, even if it means losing ourselves in the process.

“These poems were written in an attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence. I’ve spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins. My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what’s been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness,” says Fox.

Pretty Boys Are Poisonous marks the powerful debut from one of the most well-known women of our time. Press play, bite the apple, and sink your teeth into the most deliciously compelling and addictive books you’ll listen to all year.

Jennifer’s bruised body, coming for blood

Megan did something here. Raw and absolutely revolutionary way to give words to so many women that haven’t been able to do it for themselves yet. Thank you Miss Fox - icon.

I haven't cried over many poetry books, I SOBBED

I literally relived my life from 2018-2020, and I am not sure if it helped or hurt, but man! I never forget this, but for people who need to feel connected to a famous person, this is a tragic, beautiful literary work. I think Megan really shows her growth from pain, and I am pretty inspired to grow more with her!

Raw & Honest

This was a beautifully written collection of heartaches and triumphs. An honest look into a woman’s heart. Raw and real. Hard to stomach and gut wrenching. An unfortunate truth. Both beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. A masterpiece.

Breathtaking and memorable

I've always loved Megan Fox I love her dark side and her honesty so she put it into writing the best decision she could of made I was hooked from the first sentence in the first chapter I wish there was more!! All my emotions and all my being clung to every single word. Just gut wrenching and fabulous..Will be hearing it over and over again I can't get enough.

Amazing

Thank you for sharing your story with us in your unique way. The collaboration of poems took my breath away as I too remembered so much of a heart wrenching past. I’m thankful we both were able to make it through and I pray for all of those to be able to follow. Pretty boys really are poisonous!

real

Very deep. Very open and beautifully unapologetic. liberating, being in a past similar situation myself. Loved it.

Connection

Love this!!! I can definitely relate to this as well it was as if I read my life 8 years ago.
Thank you for this

Pain

I loved and felt every second of listening to her read such pain she’s had to endure. Many woman including myself have gone through similar feelings and situations and it’s nice to know we aren’t alone.

The anguish you feel WITH her is so overwhelming

Although I feel like she held back a lot (I listened to the audio versus reading it) I really like how atmospheric she is. She takes you back to these moments she's releasing while healing and healing the reader. I may feel extra sensitive due to still processing my own Domestic Violence relationship in 2020 that my heart and brain constantly fight over between who was right. Romanticizing and glamorizing. Or anger and embarrassment. Regardless of what you're going through, I feel like this is a really empowering book for anyone who is still finding their light, Or just arrived and isn't used to it yet. I love this book. I highly recommend.

her words

honestly nothing to dislike wish she had more I enjoy everything about this book praying for more
