This fun new biography of Helen Gurley Brown, "the original Carrie Bradshaw," details the at-the-time controversial editor's rise from Ozarks hillbilly-dom to quintessential Cosmo Girl & EIC.
Enjoy the lady's fun bon mots ("A lady's love should pay for all trips, most restaurant tabs and all liquor"), ahead-of-its-time financial wisdom for single women ("Being smart about money is sexy"), and, of course, advice on sex ("You inherited your proclivity for it. It isn't some random piece of mischief you dream up because you're a bad, wicked girl."). (source)
Bad Girls Go Everywhere: The Life of Helen Gurley Brown is available at Amazon.com.
