Description

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“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. Turn the page, bite the apple, and sink your teeth into the most deliciously compelling and addictive books you’ll read all year.

    This book is definitely an inside of what it’s like to be with an abuser. From past experiences this really hit home.

    Ive never felt so validated in my life reading this book of poems. Megan Fox captured the gut wrenching cruelty of falling in love with the wrong people, perfectly. I know many of us have experienced love like this multiple times in our lifetime, which has caused a lot of us to become hyper-independent and extremely lonely. Reading through this book, I don’t feel so alone anymore. Thank you.
  • For women

    A beautiful book for women. This is a book if you’ve ever felt your self worth diminished. It speaks about shame and experiences that cause a woman to question herself. The poems are deep and talk about subjects women can be ashamed to speak of.
