A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER'A glimpse to the person behind the glamour and drama . . . you get a real sense of the beating soul of Megan Fox' - Glamour'A wry and moody meditation on sadness and heartbreak' - Vogue'[Fox] opens up in poetic detail and remarkable honesty about the hardest times in her life' - Good Morning America'Not an expose, but rather a message to other women about speaking up' - USA TodayMegan Fox showcases her wicked humour throughout a heart-breaking and dark collection of poetry. Over the course of more than 80 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 book you'll read all year.
