Bella Mackie's How to Kill Your Family is a darkly humorous debut novel that follows a cunning antihero as she gets her revenge. When I think about what I actually did, I feel somewhat sad that nobody will ever know about the complex operation that I undertook. Getting away with it is highly preferable, of course, but perhaps when I'm long gone, someone will open an old safe and find this confession. The public would reel. After all, almost nobody else in the world can possibly understand how someone, by the tender age of twenty-eight, can have calmly killed six members of her family. And then happily got on with the rest of her life, never to regret a thing. When Grace Bernard discovers her absentee millionaire father has rejected her dying mother's pleas for help, she vows revenge and coldly sets out to get her retribution--by killing them all, one by one. Compulsively readable, Bella Mackie's debut novel is driven by a captivating first-person narrator who talks of self-care and social media while calmly walking the reader through her increasingly baroque acts of murder. But then, Grace is imprisoned for a murder she didn't commit. Outrageously funny, compulsive, and subversive, How to Kill Your Family is a wickedly dark romp about class, family, love . . . and murder. "Funny, sharp, dark, and twisted." --Jojo Moyes

Beh ťa upokojí a zmení ti život Rozvedená Bella Mackie, zápasiaca s vážnymi psychickými problémami, sa ocitla na prahu tridsiatky v slzách a plná strachu zo všetkého vôkol. Ledva v sebe našla silu, aby vstala z gauča, nieto ešte aby si usporiadala vlastný život. Až kým jedného dňa nespravila niečo, čo nikdy predtým z vlastnej vôle neurobila – obula si tenisky a šla si zabehať. Bellu celých desať rokov natoľko paralyzovali obavy, že na šport ani nepomyslela. Jej prvý beh preto netrval dlho. Keď na druhý deň opäť vybehla von, samu ju to prekvapilo. Zabehala si aj ďalší. Ani sa nenazdala a prvý raz po rokoch mala zrazu lepšiu náladu, prestala sa ukrývať v dome a dala prednosť čerstvému vzduchu a neznámym uliciam. V knihe Hýb sa Bella otvorene a bez zábran opisuje, ako behom bojovala s paralyzujúcou úzkosťou a depresiou bez toho, aby sa vzdala svojich troch lások: alkoholu, cigariet a zmrzliny. Jej vtipná a dojemná motivačná kniha vás povzbudí, aby ste „pohli“ so svojimi problémami a dali si život do poriadku – nech budú prvé kroky akokoľvek malé.
