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.

In the tradition of Cynthia Heimel and Chelsea Handler, and with the boisterous iconoclasm of Amy Sedaris, Julie Klausner's candid and funny debut I Don't Care about Your Band sheds light on the humiliations we endure to find love - and the lessons that can be culled from the wreckage. I Don't Care about Your Band posits that lately the worst guys to date are the ones who seem sensitive. It's the jerks in nice guy clothing, not the players in Ed Hardy, who break the hearts of modern girls.

The year 2020 was going to be the best year of Stassi’s life. Besides getting engaged and feeling like she was on top of the world career-wise, she bought her first house and was planning her dream Italian wedding. The future showed so much freaking promise—until it all went to hell. Stassi may not be perfect—she may have made some (major) mistakes—but she does feel like she has some insight (and plenty of hilarious tales) about getting knocked up, called out, and learning from what went wrong.

Here's an eye-opening examination of the "hookup" culture, seen through the experiences of high-school- and college-age women who confront the hard lessons of dating, love, and sex. Stepp follows three groups of young women and comes away with some disturbing insights. Relationships and romance are seen as messy and time-consuming, and love is postponed or, worse, seen as impossible. Many young women can't handle this, and they're being battered physically and emotionally by the new dating landscape.

Based on her popular Modern Love column, Sara Eckel’s It’s Not You challenges these myths, encouraging singletons to stop picking apart their personalities and to start tapping into their own wisdom about who and what is right for them. Supported by the latest psychological and sociological research, as well as interviews with people who have experienced longtime singledom, Eckel creates a strong and empowering argument to understand and accept that there’s no one reason why you’re single - you just are.

Waste of a Credit
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.

Has humor to it and very entertaining
I couldn't stop listening, kept me super amused. May not be your type of book if your over 30 it has a young vibe to it. And we'll the scenarios identify more with that younger age group.

Fun Book that could be scary
I have read the book, given the book as a gift and listened to the audio. It can be humorous or scary. Humor: It can be funny, comparing this to people you know, and hoping that person is not you. Scary: This can be a total honor story if you consider that a teen could read this and use it as a guide. Unfortunate to say that some may actually follow this as a bible. It is the "Betch Bible", apposed to "Bro Guide". This book is great with wine.

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.

The worst narrator voice EVER
What disappointed you about Nice Is Just a Place in France?
I knew going into this it would be a silly book, however I like to listen to things that i do not have to pay much attention while working, but WOW its really bad. The narrator's voice is soooo bad. Its like shes trying to be smart girl pretending to be a dumb girl pretending to be a smart girl in just inflection alone.
Has Nice Is Just a Place in France turned you off from other books in this genre?
I may still find some dumb blonde humor funny but will definitely listen to the sample first. Lesson learned.
Would you be willing to try another one of Arika Rapson’s performances?
Never. Im sure Arika might do well in other genres, but this book did her no service. Most of the blame should be put on the writers...but Arika watched too many episodes of the simple life before she took this on.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment and annoyed I wasted a credit.

This book has a few fun lines and obviously it's not meant to be taken too seriously - but I didn't enjoy it aside from a few lol moments from one liners. Not worth it. Sorry!
